What instructional materials are available to help students with the skills they are having trouble mastering? Which benchmark question did your students do collectively better or worse than the district as a whole? Which students are in an LEP (or ELL/ESL) program? Which students perform well in math, but not reading? Looking at the data, do you think that benchmark scores are good predictors of standardized test results?
