PG PLT Meeting 11/25/2014

Discussed timeline and where we expect to be by the end of the semester.  We expect to all complete Unit 5 by the end of the semester.  We re-ordered the units this year after looking at data on the quadrilateral unit (which was unit 4 last year and has been moved to unit 6).  So we spent time adjusting the final exams from semester 1 and semester 2.  We also made sure questions were grouped by standard.

We continued to work on the checklist for the PLT

PG PLT Meeting 11/12/2014

We discussed timelines.  We also discussed whether to assess on standards 4.1 & 4.2 together or separately.  Our intervention specialist referred to the intervention instrument spreadsheet and informed us that only one student has exited from the unit 3 standards.  So we will wait until more students pass out of RtI before referring more students.

Looking at the data from unit 3 we noticed that standard 3 is the only standard that does not have 70% mastery. We discussed what strategies have already been tried and how to further address this.

We looked at the PARCC Evidence Tables for Math I, II, & III and determined which standards are currently covered in the Plane Geometry curriculum.

We also discussed whether a video produced by Numberphile about the use of geometric transformation by Pixar is appropriate for enrichment of unit 4 standard 2.

After reviewing data from our common assessments, we decided which students should be referred to RtI.

Our RtI specialist discussed how the retakes are going.
