This presentation is geared towards instructional leaders who are responsible for facilitating Data Driven Professional Learning Communities (PLCs). Through this session, instructional leaders will see how we collect data from multiple sources to analyze student learning and address the 4 PLC questions. In our district we use an online assessment platform to administer common assessments and then track the learning by student and by standard. We pull the data from the assessments out of the online program and use spreadsheets to track the data for each student over the course of the year. As a PLC team, we use protocols to analyze the data to track our SMART goal progress and determine which students need additional support or extension.
This session will focus on achievement data collected in a suburban Chicago dual language school. A true Two-Way program, this presentation will show literacy growth in two languages among students coming from English, Spanish and bilingual homes. Data suggests that students learning bilingually demonstrate high levels of literacy in both languages of instruction. Presenters will focus on assessment data through a bilingual lens, strategies for cross-linguistic connections and strategies for effective lesson planning and instruction.
The success of any Multi-Tiered System of Supports begins with focused leadership and a strong Tier 1. Join other school and district leaders to learn about potential roadblocks to a strong Tier 1 and actions steps to move your MTSS work forward.
Attendees will be able to analyze the importance of the social-emotional learning (SEL) component within the Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) framework, and advocate for its integration and continuous improvement within the district's educational policies and practices.
If you're a Google school looking to increase student engagement and accountability for academic progress, as well as improve communication with families, this session is for you! We will dive deep into an extension called Autocrat.
With Autocrat, you can merge information from any Google Sheet into a Google Doc or PDF and send it to any email address or share the documents with a data team.
The possibilities are endless: weekly newsletters, student reflections, SEL data, 9-week feedback, grading projects and essays, organizing student data, and much more.
Finding ways for students to communicate with their families is often a challenging Domain 4 task, but it becomes much easier with Autocrat.
By the end of this session, you will leave with a product you can use in your class as soon as tomorrow!
