3. Demonstrate physical independence to meet needs Demonstrate acquisition of skills in early language, early literacy, and early math Demonstrate positive social- emotional skills Demonstrate appropriate classroom behaviors

4. Goals embedded into intentional lesson plan Responsive adults facilitate child engagement Regular child progress monitoring New goals, new interventions

12. QuestionAnswer  How often do I need to do this?  How do I do it?  Do I have to do it all?  Rotate children daily. Each child’s progress needs to be monitored weekly.  Depends on the goals. Most you can do via intentional observation. Some you will need to be at that center or activity.  Assistants can help, especially in goals you can observe (social skills, self help, etc. )

13.  How are you currently using progress monitoring in your classroom?  How are you using it in decision making?

14.  Measurable goals/outcomes  Research-based tools ◦ Sensitive to increments of student growth ◦ Efficient and effective for use in the classroom ◦ Usable format  Data driven decision-making  Systematic collection

15.  You must have a plan to collect data used to document progress toward an annual goal that includes: ◦ Procedure (how will you do it in your classroom?) ◦ Criteria (is your annual goal so measurable that you know when a child is making progress?) ◦ Schedule (how often will you collect data?) ◦ Organize (how will the data be organized for analysis?)

16.  Keep a folder or notebook for each student.  Use the Naturally Implemented Program Plan Individualized Monitoring Form ◦ Have a tab for each month. You will complete one Naturally Implemented Program Plan Individualized Monitoring Form per child per month. You can collect “work”, observations of play, pictures, etc. for the month in the tab as well. ◦ Observation is key. You will want to monitor about 3 children daily to make sure each child is monitored weekly.

17.  Careful observation is the key to most progress monitoring.  Teachers should be playing with children in centers, embedding developmentally appropriate goals in daily routine and center explorations, and strategically observing children’s progress toward goals.

19.  Structured questioning for analyzing student progress ◦ What patterns do the data reveal? ◦ What might the data reveal about the student’s needs? ◦ What adaptations may be needed to make the intervention more effective?
