3. Multiple Data Sources Summative ratings are based on multiple data sources. Observation Announced unannounced Documentation Required Artifacts Teacher-Selected Artifacts Other Sources

4. In the last module we collected evidence on Teacher A through classroom observation. Today we will add to that through evidence – submitted in the document log – collected by the evaluator Observation Data

5. The document log is an additional source of evidence. Review the documentation log. Note evidence to include for each standard. – Tool: Summary of Evidence Document Log

6. Evaluators may have data from additional sources (i.e. communications with the teacher, parents, and other interactions with the teacher) This data can also be considered when making summative ratings. Additional Data Sources

7. What evidence did you collect from the document log? Each group will share out on one standard. Reviewing the Data

8. 8 1. Professional Knowledge – Specific Evidence Document Log Evidence Lesson Plan Demonstrates: Content Knowledge is appropriate for the lesson Links content to other subject areas and to the students real world experiences through the use of the The Queen’s Dilemma and student experiences of where they have seen arrays in everyday life. Connected to prior lesson: Array Hunt Lesson objectives aligned to third grade mathematics standards Integrates questions that facilitate higher order thinking skills.

9. 9 2. Instructional Planning – Specific Evidence Document Log Evidence: Lesson Plan Demonstrates: Arrays lesson is aligned to lesson objectives and curriculum A variety of resources are used for the mathematics lesson to include a storybook, SMART Board, various manipulatives Important components of lesson built in - direct instruction, modeling, student practice, student sharing, metacognition Integrates literacy into math instruction through use of storybook Planned for some general differentiation through the use of teacher scaffolding, a remediation handout, and more challenging problems for those who master arrays.

10. 10 3. Instructional Delivery – Specific Evidence Document Log Evidence Array Remediation Activity Demonstrates: Teacher provides opportunities for differentiation Lesson Plan Demonstrates: Uses a variety of instructional strategies to promote learning - manipulatives, direct instruction, guided practice, discussion, student pairs. Builds upon previous lesson –Array Hunt Utilizes SMART Board for student learning

11. 11 4. Assessment of and for Student Learning Document Log Evidence Sample Student Reflection Demonstrates: Periodically has students complete student reflections for teacher’s knowledge and students’ knowledge uses student feedback to involve students in monitoring their own learning, as formative assessment, and to document learning. Lesson Plan Demonstrates: Uses Math Arrays Quick Check to assess student learning

12. 12 5. Learning Environment – Specific Evidence Document Log Evidence Classroom Management Plan Demonstrates: Teacher has established clear expectations for behavior

13. 13 6. Professionalism – Specific Evidence Document Log Evidence Professional Activities Summary Demonstrates Hosted student intern Participates in professional development “Inquiry-Based Learning” PD SMART Board Training Takes a leadership role in activities outside of the classroom that benefit student learning Book Club Math Buddies Other Data Sources Communicates with parents on a regular basis

14. 7. Student Academic Progress – Specific Evidence Document Log Evidence SMART Goal demonstrates – 80% of students met the SMART Goal and increased their performance 40% or more

15. Using the data that you collected today, rate Teacher A for each performance standard and overall. Draw an X on the chart paper around the room to represent that rating that your gave for each performance standard and as an overall rating Making a Summative Rating

16. Debrief on the Summative Ratings

17. “Arlington Public Schools will provide every student with highly effective educators that have the necessary tools to positively impact student learning and growth.” APS Teacher Evaluation Vision Since 1999
