Deep Dive into the Teacher's Guide to LEAP 360
Welcome and introduce yourself
2
Outcomes By the end of today’s session, we’ll address these questions:
What is LEAP 360? What is A Teacher’s Guide to LEAP 360? How do I use A Teacher’s Guide to LEAP 360? Suggested time: 1 minute

Louisiana’s Approach Louisiana believes access to the highest quality education allows all students, no matter their zip code, the opportunity for success. Implementing a high-quality curriculum based on rigorous standards is one of the fastest ways to give this access to all students. The curriculum must also be connected to standards-aligned assessments and professional development. Suggested time: 1 minute Say: “The department’s goal is that all students have access to high-quality curriculum based on rigorous standards and assessments that align to the standards, no matter where they live or attend school. Teachers and school leaders should have the same access to the curriculum, assessments, and professional development, again no matter where they teach. The department has created assessments to help students meet our goal.”

LEAP 360 There are three main purposes for classroom assessment:
Know where students are when they enter a classroom. Monitor how students are learning content over the year. Verify what students have learned. LEAP 360 pairs with LEAP 2025 to reduce overall testing time while realizing all three purposes. Suggested time: 2 minutes
5
LEAP 360 The goal of LEAP 360 is to deliver streamlined, high-quality assessments in a comprehensive system for classrooms, schools, and districts. What is the impact on teachers, principals, and districts? Teachers will have a more complete picture of student performance. Principals will identify throughout the system where additional support is needed to focus on the learning that matters most for students. Districts will reduce overall local testing while helping to monitor progress toward district goals. Suggested time: 1 minute
6
LEAP 360: Know Where They Are
To set end-of-year goals, we’ve got to start with beginning-of-year questions: What are we starting with? What have students retained from the previous year? What learning was left unfinished? Who can be pushed or challenged further? What are meaningful learning goals? In ELA and math, these answers come from a variety of places: LEAP 360 diagnostic assessments Data from previous year Cold-read task from previous grade level EAGLE test built from precursory standards found in Math Remediation Guides. Suggested time: 2 minutes
7
Diagnostics Summary (Grades 3-8 and High School)
Assessment Tool Includes Recommended Window Reporting ELA Diagnostic (Grades 3-HS) 1 reading and writing form; 3 writing forms Beginning of year/course Student, Groups, School, District, State Math Diagnostic (Grades 3-HS) 1 form (3 sessions) The diagnostic assessments are designed to: Identify the specific prerequisite skills individual students or groups of students need in order to be successful with grade level content Understand student performance on: Readily accessible and moderately complex texts in ELA Previous grade level content that is a precursor to major content in math Assist with meaningful, yet ambitious goal setting for student learning targets Suggested time: 1 minute
8
LEAP 360: Monitor What They’re Learning
To achieve end-of-year goals, we’ve got to ask throughout-the-year questions: What’s “sticking” and what’s not? What needs closer attention? How are we progressing toward goals? These answers come from a variety of places: LEAP 360 interim assessments Guidebook tasks (cold-reads, culminating writing, and extensions) Tier 1 assessments K-2 Formative tasks Aligned classroom assessments found in EAGLE Suggested time: 2 minutes
9
LEAP 360 Interim Assessments
Assessment Tool Includes Recommended Window Reporting ELA Interim Assessments for Grades 3-8, English I, and English II 2 forms in grades 3-8; 3 forms in high schools courses Based on curriculum and instructional pacing Student, Groups, School, District, State Math Interim Assessments for Grades 3-8), Algebra I, and Geometry The interim assessments are designed to allow districts, schools, and teachers to: Use results to make smart instructional decisions to improve student learning Analyze student data to identify student-specific and classwide patterns in learning and misconceptions Adjust instruction and target support for students in need Gauge progress toward end-of-year goals Suggested time: 1 minute
10
EAGLE 2.0 (ELA, Math, SS, and Sci)
K-2 Tasks and EAGLE Assessment Tool Includes Recommended Window Reporting K-2 Tasks (ELA and Math) 32 tasks (16 ELA, 16 math) Throughout year N/A EAGLE 2.0 (ELA, Math, SS, and Sci) over 5,500 items Performance, Test Session The formative assessment tools (EAGLE 2.0 and the K-2 Formative Tasks): Provide quality questions/tasks that target individual skills or texts Integrate with tasks from teachers’ curriculum Aid and enhance student learning while allowing teachers to make timely interventions to adjust instruction throughout the year Suggested time: 1 minute
11
LEAP 360: Verify What They Know
To verify end-of-year goals, we’ve got to ask end-of-year questions: What can I confirm about learning? What worked? What didn’t? Did we reach our goals? These answers can come from a few different places: LEAP 2025 summative assessments End-of-module or unit tests built in EAGLE Cold-read tasks and culminating writing tasks Suggested time: 2 minutes
12
LEAP 360 Improvements During the first year of LEAP 360 implementation, feedback was collected from focus groups, site visits, district and school leaders, and teachers. Feedback was categorized into five focus areas: Data Management Educator Scoring Reporting Content EAGLE Suggested time: 1 minute
13
LEAP 360 Improvements Educator Scoring

21
What is A Teacher’s Guide to LEAP 360?
A Teacher’s Guide to LEAP 360 serves as a support tool for teachers to use when implementing the components of LEAP 360. A Teacher’s Guide to LEAP 360 provides information on goal setting, reporting, instructional planning, and assessment design. A Teacher’s Guide to LEAP 360 is located on the LEAP 360 and Assessment Library pages. Suggested time: 2 minutes

LEAP 360: In the Classroom LEAP 360 Overview
Diagnostic Assessments Interim Assessments EAGLE and K-2 Formative Task When Beginning of the year or start of a course 2-3 major checkpoints during the year after large periods of instruction Embedded throughout the year based on smaller units of instruction What Assessments that pinpoint existing strengths and weaknesses of students entering their classrooms. In math, items assess students’ mastery of prerequisite standards for the major work of the course, and in ELA items have been developed using readily accessible and moderately complex texts. Assessments to help educators identify students’ misconceptions and learning patterns to adjust instruction and target support. Items assess specific chunks of curricular content and should be given only after instruction on that content has occurred. They are not “mini-summatives” or isolated test prep materials. High-quality items and pre-made assessments designed to be woven into the day-to-day practices of classroom instruction Where eDIRECT Who Students in grades 3-8 (ELA and math), English I, English II, Algebra I, and Geometry Students in grades K-12 in ELA, math, science, and social studies Suggested time: 3 minutes
24
LEAP 360: In the Classroom LEAP 360 and Goal Setting Practices
LEAP 360 provides teachers with connected assessments designed to give meaningful information about student performance throughout the year. These assessments are aligned to both the Louisiana Student Standards and ot the approach of LEAP This has powerful implications for goal setting. Suggested time: 3 minutes
25
LEAP 360: Making Meaning Zeroing in on Results
LEAP 360’s reports are designed to help teachers make actionable meaning out of student performance appropriately and efficiently. When viewed as a full suite, these reports take teachers through a process of thoughtful analysis and reflection that can lead to critical planning and adjustments. Test Session Summary Reports should be used to get a quick overview of student performance in a test session. Test Session Response Maps should be used to make decisions about pacing for the coming year based on identifying strengths and weaknesses. Individual Summary Reports should be used to understand an individual student’s overall performance. Student Response Maps should be used to dig deeper for specific students or groups of students who will need targeted instructional support either throughout the school year or with specific parts of the curriculum. Suggested time: 2 minutes
26
LEAP 360: Making Meaning Zeroing in on Results
Diagnostic Reports What does the data say about my current students’ readiness for their grade level? What patterns am I seeing in my students’ data that I can use to inform my instruction? What targeted instruction will I need to provide individual students or my class overall given these results? What impact does this data have on my student learning goals for this year? Interim Reports Suggested time: 2 minutes
27
LEAP 360 and Instructional Planning
Using LEAP 360 in the English Language Arts Classroom English Language Arts Guidebooks 2.0 units include instruction in the study and analysis of complex, grade-level texts. This approach extends into the LEAP 360 assessments as well. However, the results from these assessments are only valuable if they are incorporated into instructional pacing and planning. Suggested time: 1 minute LEAP 360 fits into this cycle in a couple of ways. It may be used to identify the gaps between student performance and the standards, or it may be used after interventions have occurred to measure growth. In this way, LEAP 360 pairs well with Guidebook assessments and lessons, giving teachers the opportunity to incorporate it into the rhythm of their classroom and curriculum.
28
LEAP 360 and Instructional Planning
Using LEAP 360 in the Mathematics Classroom LEAP 360 assessments provide teachers and learners with high-quality assessments of these standards through an approach that mirrors that of the LEAP 2025 statewide summative tests. However, like in English language arts, the results from these assessments are only valuable if they are incorporated into instructional pacing, planning, and, in the case of math, remediation. Suggested time: 1 minute LEAP 360 assessments align to the approach of LEAP 2025 Summative Assessments, but in smaller chunks of learning. When students do not perform well on portions of an interim assessment, the Remediation Guides can serve as a valuable tool to pinpoint previous grade-level standards to target with individual students or in small groups.
