Key Findings

The low percentages for Trimester 1 (T1) competencies are typically a result

of many competencies not yet introduced or evaluated

Percentages are not significantly different for students meeting end of year

ELA and Math standards when analyzing T1 2016 and T1 2017

Students in 2017 demonstrate higher proficiency when comparing and

contrasting stories

5th graders in 2017 are slightly less proficient when solving real world

problems involving addition/subtraction/multiplication/division and writing

algebraic expressions

Continuing to progress towards the end of year district goal of 66% (math)

and 71% (ELA) for 5th grade competencies with significant work still to do

Next Steps (as reported 9/22/16)

Align K-12 ELA standards to identify priorities and supporting standards

Administer i-Ready (reading & math) and DRA (reading) to make

informed decisions about instruction and differentiate support for

students (completed 2 of 3 assessments)

Shift ELA instruction to a workshop model using whole group, small

group, and one-on-one instruction to address standards and provide

students with support in response to their strengths and challenges

(Ongoing)

Work with principals and instructional coaches throughout the year

digging deeper into the ELA Framework
