Glow: Some of my 4th grader students recognized some of the artists and their paintings from previous years seeing and learning about them.

Grow: My 2nd graders struggled with the color wheel. Which concerned me because I do that with every grade every year. So i feel i need to approach that subject maybe in a different manner so they remember it every year.

Glow- My students have been getting excited about writing and have started requesting specific words be added to our word wall so they can be successful in their writing.

Grow- We need to work on our handwriting skills and making our illustrations match our sentences.

# data[].attributes.body
Glow: My students are excited to learn and they are trying very hard. I am seeing growth and taking small steps, but I am happy they are happy to be here.

Grow: The class is struggling with writing, as a whole. We are working hard, but progress is slow and small.

Glow: A majority of my 4th graders that I had last year have shown that they are retaining some of the information taught last year. A few of them even used some thinking skills to figure out a few new notes that I hadn't taught them yet.
My 3rd graders showed that they were eager to try their best even if they didn't know exactly what to do.

Grow: My 4th graders struggled with creating their own music within the given time signature, so over this next year I know we can grow in that aspect.
My 3rd graders struggled with the notes on the treble clef, but over the next year and after introducing recorders, I am positive that they will also grow.

My students want to succeed and do their best.  I see them really trying and excited when they complete their work.

Grow
Writing - My students really struggled with using TIDE and putting the information into their own words.  We have been practicing this the last few weeks and I am seeing improvement with their writing.
Math - My students really struggled with the See, Plan, Do, Reflect model. I am working with students in small groups to give explicit instruction and allow them to practice the concept.

In math, some of my students were able to give information in the PS model.  No one turned in a blank paper.  Most had all quadrants filled in for both problems.

Grow
On the SRSD, most of my students struggled with pulling out information from the text.  They didn't understand the process with TIDE, but we have been working a lot on the process and I see them beginning to understand it!

# data[].attributes.body
Glow:  Students are showing growth and enjoying learning.  It is a noticable difference so I am excited to see more growth going forward!

Grow: Students are struggling with writing but with the use of graphic organizers and writing using smaller steps, they are showing improvement.

Students have already shown expected growth in the amount of push-ups and curl-ups that they can do. They are also improving on their aerobic capacity with being able last longer during cardio exercises.

Third graders are understanding heart rate and the difference between faster and slower heart rates, but we are still working on calculating their heart rates. They will get better as they get better with multiplication.

Glow
Writing- The students took a long time doing it. They did not follow a structure but reread the text to find information to write.
Math-The students were not stressing out about it. Some of the students did try to solve the problem accurately with what has been taught in math previously.

Grow
Writing- We will need to practice grammar and structure. We will use Empowering Writers and SRSD to plan and write their texts.
Math- We will work in small work and learn how to use the model provided. We will also practice reading and answering questions.

Glow : I noticed that my students are slowly taking in things i've taught . Most of mine have never been to school before ..so for even some knowledge even the smallest is growth to me .

Grow : The only way my kids can go is up in all aspects of learning !

# data[].attributes.body
Most of my students identify the common vocabulary pictures, the rest of the more difficult pictures don't know them.
On math my students had some difficulty identifying the shapes. I am working with my students in small groups and one by one to improve their academic growth.

Glow: The exposure to the Problem Solving Model was a way to remember it for some student, and the first exposure for others. For the SRSD, it was great to see most of them writing a paragraph.

Grow: It will take a year practice to create confidence in the students to work with the Problem Solving Model and the SRDS frame.

# data[].attributes.body
Glow: MATH they didn't stress out to much and they were able to even though not correctly they put some ideas down and work out problems.

Growth: MATH they need read the problems more carefully and plan out their approach to problem solving.

# data[].attributes.body
Glow: MATH-students were able to pick out important information needed to solve a math word problem.  WRITING-students were able to copy important information needed in order to compose an essay.

Grow:  MATH-problem solving strategies are being implemented within my classroom to help with this.  WRITING-reading for understanding and putting it in our own words is what is being worked on....plagiarism.

For our SRSD assessment I was happy to see that students already had a good understanding of locating facts within the reading selection. I was able to see that my students need help and be able to show growth with being able to identify the important details that correspond to the prompt given to them.

# data[].attributes.body
Glow: Some students were able to give me information for the problem solving model as well able to give me details for the SRSR Writing. They didn't give me a blank paper.

Grow: TIDE graphic organizer, my students didn't know how to use one so we are slowing start to use one when writing informative writing.

Glow: Student's basic handwriting skills are growing. In math students have 85% of students have mastered addition to 10!

Grow: Organization of writing and how to stay on topic and add responsive writing to all reading assignments! In math we are working with addition to 20 and subtraction.

# data[].attributes.body
Glow: Students struggled with the terms "firsthand account" and "secondhand account" when referring to 1st person point of view and 3rd person point of view. After having the students close their eyes (visualize) and listen to portions of a story, they were able to distinguish the difference which also improved their understanding when completing their assignment for RPM.

Growth: Students must continue to work on writing complete sentences, using correct capitalization, and correct punctuation. They are also struggling with spelling.

# data[].attributes.body
Glow: My kids all tested very well. They showed that they have a firm grip on phonetics.
Grow: one of my kids is going to need a lot of help.

# data[].attributes.body
In writing, the students were using complete sentences. Most of them use capital letters and punctuation. They need to work on spelling.

In math, the students know how to pick out the numbers and whether to add or subtract. However, they need help with the computation part.

# data[].attributes.body
Glo: I can see my students love for learning growing every single day and wanting to do the work given to them. They are starting to want to do more challenging work.

Grow: My students still need to grow fluency in both reading and math. I am confident that it will come with more instruction time.

# data[].attributes.body
Glow: basic handwriting skills have improved already! Also, my students math logic is showing growth as well.

Grow: Organization of writing and how to stay on topic and write MORE! In math we are working on how to make thinking visible.

My students are learning the process of writing with HMH but now I need to introduce TIDE so they get familiar.  I had one student that had 1 point in the planning process.

My students in math still need to grow. They need to learn how to solve and explain their answers.

# data[].attributes.body
My students were able to draw their ideas on the graphic organizer for SRSD. Some were able to write words from the word bank with good handwriting. I feel that my student will grow once the TIDE chart will be introduced and used frequently in the classroom. As for math, I was impressed that a few of my students could answer the question but could not show me how they solved the problem. I think by implementing the "Problem Solving Model" in the classroom I will eventually be able to support them.

# data[].attributes.body
In writing, there is nowhere to go but up.  I did have 1 student earn a point for planning.  And 2 students earned a point for handwriting. I am looking forward to introducing the TIDE chart for writing.

In math, some of the students were able to  solve the problem but were unable to explain/prove how they got their answers.  Students were confident while taking the assessment but scores were low. Will have to work on "not" questions again this year.

# data[].attributes.body
Students have shown growth from the beginning of the year on their fine motor skills.

# data[].attributes.body
Students had a difficult time with planning out their writing with using TIDE. Students also had a difficult time using the planning organizer for math. Students did a great job at concentrating and actually trying to produce work.

# data[].attributes.body
On writing, most students followed standard conventions such as starting with capitals and ending with periods. Many are also writing on the line. We will have to focus on structural organization of thoughts and ideas.

On math, they demonstrated isolated computational skills, but struggled when having to perform broad algebraic reasoning and construction of algorithms.

My students are really excited about the wonderful exploration of words and their related pictures from actions to nouns. They Glow when we explore vocabulary related to animals like Meerkats and Alligators. When identifying shapes they love to create shapes. The challenge comes when they have to translate or figure out what the word "Not" means. Growing them to understand that one of these things is not like the other is a Grow focus. We play vocabulary games to assist with the this growth

# data[].attributes.body
On the vocabulary most of the students did fairly well on recognizing and identifying the pictures. They need to be exposed to more vocabulary and pictures.

On the math the students had some challenges identifying the shapes. I believe that having more small group sessions will help the students improve overall.

# data[].attributes.body
In writing, the students did well using their graphic organizers and picking out key vocabulary words. Students still need practice and review with composing complete sentences and using their graphic organizers appropriately.

In math, the students were able to pick out important pieces of information but need practice using the problem-solving model.

# data[].attributes.body
On the writing, I was proud to see students using the graphic organizer.  I can see that we need to review the TIDE chart in order to organize our thoughts for writing.

On the math, students tried to work out problems and use the problem-solving model. I can see that we need to practice using the problem-solving model so that they know how to use it appropriately.

# data[].attributes.body
Overall, students had a good start on vocabulary. The majority new at least 45%.
My students will need growth in geometry with shape names, sides and vertices.
