Instructional Team
Here is the weekly Launch Pad.
DDIs for 3rd - 8th grade are going well. Thank you for your time and dedication. Data shows an increase in student achievement on multi-select questions. Great work!
DDIs for EOC and Non-tested teachers - Week of April 1st. The link to sign up was sent out Monday and the template to work with is in the launch pad.
Testing Session is Here:
- Instruction: 5th - 8th grade has one week, 3rd - 4th grade has two weeks, and EOCs have three weeks for these final efforts in mastering content before your phase of testing.
- Ideas from teacher's DDI sessions for final pushes:
- Using most missed questions from the Practice tests and Interims to identify major focus areas to remediate. Covering a lesson on each and remediating with a follow up checkpoint at the end of each week to determine growth on content remediated during the week.
- Mini lessons to review major focus standards and split session after 15 - 20 minutes for students on track to work independently while struggling students continue specific interventions
