Dawn,
ReplyDeleteYour timeline seems feasible to examine test scores. I do suggest that also document minutes with ideas indicating success/recommendations for change as you implement the lessons so that you will have some idea of how the lessons may align with the benchmarks/LEAP results.
Just something to consider.
Dr. Mason
Thanks, Dr. Mason. I will add that to my plan also. It will help us know what works and doesn't work, so that we can continue to implement this with our students year after year.
ReplyDeleteWhere do your common core standards for 4th grade come from?
ReplyDeleteSorry for not answering sooner Julie. Our parish is switching to common core standards for next year. They were handed out to us at a faculty meeting earlier this month and I am going to another meeting about them next week to learn more.
