We will examine the 2020-2021 ELA MAAP item analysis and the new ELA blueprints to ensure pacing is appropriate and make adjustments as needed. Additionally, based on blueprints we will ensure instructional emphasis is appropriate.
Data becomes much more powerful when teachers and students engage with the data and have data conversations, or data chats. During these conversations, teachers identify strengths, areas for growth, goals, and specific actions. For students, these conversations increase student engagement and promote student owndership over their own learning. In this session, we will explore data chats and how they look in the classroom.
