Results of the Unit 3 assessment were discussed. A sufficient amount of students showed proficiency in standards 3.1 & 3.2. We discussed how to improve standard 3.3. Most teachers had already re-taught and re-tested on the standard and only about half had shown proficiency. We decided to add extra problems to the assessment in order to scaffold for students who struggle with vocabulary.
We touched base on where we are in Unit 4. There is more freedom in this unit for teachers to do projects and such, so we will not all stay exactly on the same timeline, but will aim for assessing before Thanksgiving break.
The rest of the time was spent deciding who to recommend for RtI.
