- 5th/2nd Grade CER
- NEW MATH RESOURCES! We have some amazing new math resources . Here is a companion guide on how these resources support the different areas of the Math Instructional Model!
Writing EOY Writing Samples
End-of-Year Writing Samples
For end-of-year writing samples, teachers will collect and score one expository writing piece for each student. This should be completed during the EOY Literacy Assessment Window in May.
Students complete the writing independently (similar to a flash draft)
Grade level teams determine their own writing prompts
Scored samples go in students’ yellow folders to be used by next year’s teachers
Kinder-1st Grade use Early Beginners OR Advanced Beginners rubrics, depending on the level of each student
2nd-5th Grade use the FISD Expository Writing Rubric
