  6. Balancing our Priorities Journeys, The Common Core Standards and Data Teams

  7. Implement the Data Teams process using district assessment and design instruction without core materials Become familiar with what works for kids in the Journeys Materials Use assessments from the Journeys Materials and implement a modified Data Teams Cycle Work to create CFAs aligned to the CC Standards to build a deeper understanding of these standards Goal: Implement the CC Standards with teacher created assessment to use during the Data Teams process. Deepen our Data Teams process by using student data around the standards to plan for instruction using Journeys as a starting point.

  8. Deepening our Understanding… The Common Core Ate My Baby and Other Urban Legendsby Timothy Shanahan. (Educational Leadership – January 2013) As you’re reading… • 2 ideas that clarified something for you ? 1 idea that brings up a question

  9. Goals for Moving Forward with Data Teams • Ensure that teams have assessments that support instructional decision making in both literacy & math. • “This teacher-created assessment may consist of entirely original items, or of items available through sources like online databases and ancillary materials, or of a combination of original and non-original items. However, it's critical that the team agrees that the items on the assessment accurately measure the "unwrapped" standards.” ~ Peery, pg. 22 • Implement a data analysis process to ensure that we are modifying instructional practices based on student needs.

  15. Frequently Asked Questions • Why can’t the district provide the “team I Can statements”? • If consistency is our goal, why aren’t we providing common assessments for each unit?

  16. Question #1: Why can’t the district provide the “team I Can statements”? The purpose of the “team I Can statements”: • Build a deeper understanding of the grade-level standards • Promote teacher conversation regarding what this standard looks like through instruction and assessment • Team and teacher ownership of the “I Can” statements, common formative assessments, and instructional practices

  17. Question #2: If consistency is our goal, why aren’t we providing common assessments? The Purpose of team created CFAs: • To drive daily instruction in the classroom (…it's critical that the team agrees that the items on the assessment accurately measure the standards ~ Peery) • Team and teacher ownership of what we want our students to know and be able to do regarding the ICC standards The purpose of our CFAs is not to compare schools or student progress. (**The Balanced Assessment System)

  18. Literacy Data Teams Model Grade 4 Unit 5

  19. Step #1: Focusing our Instruction

  20. Goal for Step #1: Focusing our Instruction Promote teacher conversation & understanding of the grade-level standards: • What does the standard expect of students? • How do the different standards fit together? • What does this standard look like at previous or future grade levels? Great resource to promote this conversation:

  21. Step #2: Create the Pre/Post Common Formative Assessment

  22. Goals for Step 2: Create the Pre/Post Common Formative Assessment • Assessment items directly aligned to prioritized I Can Statements. • Assessment items are designed to highlight the strengths and needs of students. • Assessment passages are grade level text. • Assessment length is reasonable. Resources to Support: • Journeys passages (practice book, projectable, unit assessments) • Read Works Website • District provided options

  23. Step #3: Set the SMART Goal The percentage of students scoring proficient or higher on our prioritized I Can Statements will increase from ________% to ________% measured by the posttest administered on ___________________________.

  24. Step #4: Identify Strengths and Needs

  25. Goals for Step #4: Identify Strengths and Needs • The group analyzes the pre-assessment data to determine student strengths and areas of need, in reference to the team “I Can” statements. • Direct analysis of student work is necessary to complete this step.

  26. Step #5: Planning for Instruction

  27. Goals for Step #5: Planning for Instruction • The group determines implications for whole group and small group instruction based on the team “I Can” statements and the pre-assessment student data. • Specific materials for use, teacher actions and student actions are articulated. • The group reviews the available materials within Journeys and determines what modifications to instruction and teacher language are necessary to accomplish our team “I Can” statements. Resources to Support: • JOURNEYS • The Common Core Book

  28. Data Teams 2013-2014 (Grade 3 Unit 1)

  29. Data Team Example Discussion: • How do you see this working at your building? With your grade level team? • If you have already engaged in this process at your building, share out your experience with your table.

  30. Designing the Instructional Day Handout

  31. Designing the Instructional Day The Purpose of this Document: • Time allotments across content areas • Instructional components of each content area • Starting point for grade-level conversations about the distribution of the instructional day

  32. 3rd Grade Example Schedule

  33. Example Schedule Discussion: • What have you found that works at your building or individual classroom?
