What do we do with the data?

• NECAP – We designed individualized review packets for each child in grades 3-6. Teachers use these packets to provide personal, group, and whole class practice of problems that students were unable to demonstrate.

• NECAP – We designed grade specific prepare packets for each child in grades 2-6. Teachers use these packets to practice skills that students will be asked to demonstrate in October.

What do we do with the data ?

• Measures of Academic Progress (MAPs) – Look for grade level and schoolwide trends– Adjust instruction for individuals, small groups,

and whole class– Design lesson plans on specific results for

enrichment, practice, and intervention– Share with Special Educators, Title One

Teacher, and next year’s Teacher
