Week of January 11th
Moving Forward....
"Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." -William Butler Yeats
Teachers,by using ongoing student data to guide our decision making, designed differentiated and delivered instruction to meet the needs of each learner. We will continue to make every effort to ensure the success of ALL of our students. On last week we were able to discuss, some strategies that we will use to help our students reach their full potential. Though the use of DOK(Depth of Knowledge), we will continue push our students to think deeper and to apply what they learn in various ways. Through the usage of the Learning Continuum, we will analyze the needs of each student, and provide more intensive approach to meeting our students needs academically. Let's continue to work together to ensure that we are doing ALL we can to grow our students to where they need to be.

DIBELS Testing.....
The Districts DIBEL Team will begin DIBEL on January 11. The goal is to finish testing all k-5 students by January 22. Please take a look at the attached schedule and plan accordingly.
The team of 4 will need a testing location close to the tested grade level. Each tester will need 1 desk, 2 chairs, and a copy of each current class list. Ideally, it is best if students are not tested in hallways.
3-5th grade teachers will be responsible for administering and grading the DAZE portion of the DIBELS assessment. Information will should have been emailed directly to the 3-5 teachers and materials will be sent to teacher leaders for distribution. A DIBELS team member will collect the DAZE assessments and enter into the data collection system.
