Presentation of Goal Meeting Data
Diagnostic Data Breakdown:
From diagnostics the students took - it is an indication of where students are coming in. Low scores are expected. This is a pretest.
PYP:
Reading - a drop in knowledge coming in in the 3rd grade.
Math - 75th and higher drops off again in 3rd grade.
MYP
ELA - scores are without the constructed response; data is broken down by particular domain.
Math - 8th grade scores are much lower. The constructed response tended to help students in Math.
Science - around 25% scored well
SS - weakest area is the state history standard
Vertical alignment meeting to determine how the PYP can use the same language and help the MYP
Test is from week 2
Vertical alignment in ELA as well.
