2  September 4, 2014 Brian Lloyd, Ed.S., NCSP Mary Jo Wegenke Melanie Kahler

3 By the end of the morning you will:  You will about or be reminded of practices that improve benchmark fidelity  Learn about AIMSweb Growth Norms and applicability for progress monitoring goal setting  Identify which of your intervention practices align with the 8 Steps for Successful Interventions  Identify the gold standards of MTSS Coaching Practices

4  I can articulate why the ISD is not migrating to the new AIMSweb 2.0  I can maintain high fidelity when benchmarking and progress monitoring by scheduling refresher trainings and administration/scoring fidelity checks.  I can use the new growth norms to help set progress monitoring goals for identified students.  I can work with appropriate staff to schedule data analysis at the grade and building.  I can identify how the intervention practices within my school align with the 8 Steps for Successful Intervention Management System.  Write at least one personal goal to improve your MTSS Coaching Skill Set

6 1. AIMSWeb 2.0 is still extremely buggy. 2. There were issues with migrating our data. 3. The progress monitoring features look awesome, but there were issues with how benchmarking was set up that they are still working on. Example: They did not include the tier transition reports in the new version. These issues will be eventually be resolved.

7  AIMSWeb 2.0 has automated/easier progress monitoring decision making using fairly recently released growth norms.  AIMSWeb suggests using these for setting progress monitoring goals. They are better because: o More specific to each students level of performance. o More appropriate to the time of the year in which they are being monitored.  An explanation of how to use the new growth norms without using AIMSWeb 2.0 is needed.

8  The weekly rate of improvement you select to determine your goal is going to depend on the grade (of course), the benchmark/baseline score the student achieved, and the period of time you are monitoring.  You will use a different set of weekly ROIs when setting goals for fall to winter, than you would when setting goals between winter to spring, and another different set of ROIs when setting yearly goals.  It’s not as complicated as it sounds when you actually do it.

9  See the handed out ROI Growth norm table page for fifth grade or download your own digital copy:

10  Step 1: Determine whether you can use grade level measures. If not, find what grade level you need.  AIMSWeb survey assessment procedures indicate that you go down a grade level when the student scores below the 10th percentile.  Remember though that when in doubt, use grade level measures for progress monitoring.

11  Step 2: Select the ROI using the ranges provided in the ROI Growth Norms Table. Reference the column for the time of the year. Use this range

12

13  Step 3: Use the baseline, number of weeks of progress monitoring, and your newly referenced ROI to calculate a goal score.

18  We used the highest range of scores at the 85 th percentile, but the use of this score is only one of your options to set your goals.  The 85 th percentile score GN ranges represent the most ambitious score that AIMSweb recommends that you use to set your goal.  In the past, we’ve recommended using 1.5 times the ROI at the 50 th percentile on the AIMSweb norms. We also recommend the use of 2.0 times the ROI at the 50 th percentile for ambitious goals and/or for students receiving tier 3 interventions.

19  There are differing “acceptable” methods for setting progress monitoring goals.  Using the Growth Norms to select a goal for different achievement bands at specified percentiles. o This method is best for making sure the ROI goal is best matched to student needs and skills. o You will need to decide which GN growth percentiles you select and under which circumstances. (85 th for tier 3, 65 th or 75 th for tier 2, etc.  Selecting default benchmark scores for grade levels or percentiles (usually 25 th or 50 th ) for all students. Use Growth Norms to make sure they close the gap and isn’t too ambitious.  Use 1.5 times the ROI for students at the 50 th percentiles for tier 2 and 2.0 times the ROI for students at the 50 th percentiles for tier 3.

20

21  Schedule administration/scoring refreshers  Periodic observations  Booklet/measure review  Score comparisons between testers  Check to make sure your data makes sense at student, classroom, and grade levels. o Unfortunately, if something is just too good to be true, it just might be.

22  The inclusion of accuracy rate for R-CBM, MAZE, TEL, and TEN measures are important metric when analyzing student data. Remember to include this data when entering scores.  Accuracy rate may not determine recommendations, but errors are still important for student.

23  The errors/accuracy rate are automatically calculated/entered when using web-based scoring.  Hand scoring: TWR – WRC = Errors  Don’t include words not yet read. Skipped lines do count as errors.  Calculate accuracy by: Words read correct divided by total words read equals accuracy rate.  Or - WRC / TWR = Accuracy rate  Example: A student who reads 100 total words with 5 errors would read 95 out of 100 possible words correctly. The accuracy rate is 95%.

24 1. Grab a Marker 2. At a designated poster paper, write two practices that you have put in place to make your increase your benchmarking fidelity or efficiency. 3. Walk around the poster paper and find one practice that you haven’t tried that might increase your school/district’s benchmarking fidelity or efficiency.

25 List Interventions in the boxes 1.Select intervention (programs, practices, or strategies) that: a)Meet the identified needs of the students. a)Are evidence based. 1.Select an interventionist, grade level or classroom that is willing to implement the intervention prior to full implementation. Schedule how and when the intervention will be given and who will give it. 1.Identify staff or staff members with the capacity to train, support implementation and monitor fidelity. 1.Provide a written protocol or script for implementing the intervention. 1.Provide time and all necessary materials needed to implement the intervention for at least the first week. 1.Observe the interventionist practice the intervention until they demonstrate fluent delivery of the intervention protocol. 1.Develop and implement progress monitoring plans which will include: a)Use of a general outcomes measure (AIMSweb or DIBELS) and/or skill specific measure included within the intervention (if available). a)The frequency of progress monitoring, a schedule for reviewing the data, and a person or team assigned to review the data. a)If growth is not sufficient, the first step should always be to measure fidelity of implementation. 1.If student growth is not sufficient, and fidelity has been verified, check if you have correctly identified the area of deficit. a)If yes, use Instructional Variables Checklist a)If no, redefine skills deficit and move through steps 1 – 8. See the 8 Steps for Successful Management of Interventions reference sheet. Use it as a reference as setting up intervention groups this fall.
