Student understanding was better this year. I'm hopeful that with new program we continue to see growth in all areas.

Our fraction understanding seems to be lacking, but knowing that we can spend a little extra time focusing on some of the early skills that can lead to misunderstandings later.  Maybe we can find games or additional materials to help raise the interest and understanding with fractions.
-Some of our key understanding in addition and subtraction is also lacking. Perhaps, as time goes on they'll gain more confidence.

Our students seem to be very proficient in measurement however one area we should focus on their  algebraic thinking.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to focus on the following concepts: 1) Operations and Algebraic Thinking, 2) Numbers and Operations in Base Ten and in Fractions, 3) Geometry, 4) Measurement and Data.

Measurement and Data and Fractions are areas where improvement is needed. We also need to look at geometry. We also did well in these areas (???), so we need to look at the types of questions that were given.

I think our scores will continue to improve once the students coming to us have previously been exposed to the program, and have come up through it.

It's really nice to see how well we did in many areas within the standards.

I was pleasantly surprised that we did pretty well with fractions. This might b because we spend a great deal of time working with them.

We need to emphasize the importance of writing an equation with a variable to solve a problem. This begins with work in Chapter 2 and Chapter 3.

We are growing stronger in the area of fractions!  Yay!  We need to make improvements with measurement and data.

There were only three questions assessed.

We should extend the children's exposure to ordering fractions and spiral it to assist them in remember the process to improve scores in these highlighted standards.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that our results are pretty positive and things will improve as students continue to gain experience with a more rigorous math program. We need to give time to practice modeling!

Some fraction standards we are doing well and some we are struggling with.  We need to look into this further.

# data[].attributes.headline
The fractions standards seem to the ones where we are most are doing around 40%, so we may need further emphasis on those specific standards.

Depending on the skill (i.e. Numbers and Operations in Base Ten), students are doing well on some standards but not grasping the others. We should look into this and
our instruction in each standard.

There is inconsistency in performance even within a single standard.  We may need to look at release questions.  Maybe it's the difference between the Type 1 and Type 2/3 questions.
