21. Growth In the past, accountability measures have required students to achieve a certain proficiency standard. SLOs and the district’s expectation for reading require student’s to achieve one year’s growth. The attached link (p.26-37) will take you to a chart which will help you determine individual growth goals for all students by grade level and ten point increments. http://d3r7smo9ckww6x.cloudfront.net/2- SRI_GrowthExpectationsSetting_2.pdf

22. Growth Goals Report The growth goals report shows the goals for each individual student as a range. The individualized number on the previously referenced growth goals chart is the mean number of that range. The targets reflected on the growth goals report are targets established assuming the student received NO interventions.

29. Recommended Reading Report Before each student took the SRI for the first time, they had to choose 3 genres of books which interested them. Based on the student’s SRI score, a Recommended Reading Report is generated, which provides each student a list of books to read at an appropriate lexile level in their interest areas.

30. Recommended Reading Report

31. Student Action Report An individualized action plan for a student to increase their reading level.

32. Student Test Printout When students took MAP in the past, sometimes you would have that sneaking suspicion that a student did not provide their best effort on the test. Sometimes with MAP, you would even look at the time stamp and say, “There is no way Johnny answered 43 questions in 15 minutes.” SRI does put a diamond beside a student’s score if the student took less than 15 minutes on the test. However, if you REALLY suspect a student did not provide their best effort, you can print off the student’s test and read it to them, simply click Print Preview once you choose Student Test Printout.

33. We have data, now what? Turn to your elbow partner and share 3 ways how this information will impact your instructional practices in the classroom.

34. In conclusion, are we… able to access the SRI portal? able to run various classroom reports using the SRI portal? able to run individual student reports using the SRI portal? Have we reflected on our own instructional practices and how we will use reading comprehension data in their own classrooms?
