SLG (Student Learning Goal)
Our SLG is in writing and we have a common assessment that is taken in the spring, fall, and winter. It helps to track growth individually as well as the whole class percentage that goes into our own learning goals for the class and third grade. There is a standard rubric and the assessment prompt changes, but the rubric remains the same throughout the year.

Fluency
Reading fluency (words per minute) is a weekly data collection that monitors student progress over the course of year, but monitors growth weekly. It helps to show data as far as reading progress.

Daily lessons
Looking at daily work and daily lessons.  Being able to assess student ability on a daily basis, allows us to see how students are progressing.  We can often see and figure out if students are ready for their summative assessments through their formative progress.  Asking and allowing students to work in groups and share their responses allows us to see their thinking and understand what they are grasping and or need more support on.

SBAC
The SBAC is a yearly test taken at the end of the year in reading, math, and science.  It measures the growth and achievement of students over the whole entire year.  It is used as a general indicator of overall student performance and achievement.  The SBAC is now taken on the computer vs. the old CRTs.

Student Feedback
Peer groups help to illustrate and show how students thinking and language reflects their learning.  This is not necessarily planned, but happens on a daily basis by allowing students to work with peers or partners and help each other on their work or an assigned task together.  It helps to show their thought process and development and lead to future lessons.

Small quizzes and more independent daily work.
Smaller assessments that are more independent will lead to data collection and progress within that unit of study. Daily tasks.

I-Ready
Students take the I-Ready (computer program) assessment three times a year, math and reading, (fall, winter, spring) that measures student progress at predetermined junctures throughout the year.  It measures student growth.  It is used to assess student levels and current standards that are differentiated and leads to student individual work as well as areas for development. Students use the program daily, which from their assessment leads to daily lessons.

MAPS testing is a norm-referenced test that measures student performance on a RIT score and a Percentile as far as a national norm. It compares students across districts and the country. Students that score below 40th percentile are considered At-RIsk and usually will then be progress monitored in small groups throughout the semester for student growth and development. This test (assessment) is given three times a year. It will often be and can be generated into other programs such as Khan Academy for math instruction based off of student results.

End of Unit Exams or Finals
Students in elementary school don't have finals, but can have an end of the semester exam. Typically this will just follow a particular unit. Although high school students have final exams and these can be worth a relative larger percentage of their grade and reflect semester work and assessment. They are assessed once a semester or usually twice a year.
