How long do I spend re-teaching curriculum from the Spring?

How can I effectively collect data from formative assessments in order to drive instruction when I don't know what kind of help students are receiving at home?

Are parents helping students with assessments?

How do I really know where my students stand academically? ]]> 2020-09-03 03:08:12 UTC https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/716859780 esterkutsak https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/716864198 How do I effectively prioritize the social/emotional well-being of my students while also determining where learning loss is present? 

How do I focus my efforts on strengthening relationships with every student while also making sure they are on track to meet the end of the year goals and standards.]]> 2020-09-03 03:10:49 UTC https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/716864198 esterkutsak https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/716874768
How do I help students that are lost and parent involvement is not present?]]> 2020-09-03 03:17:14 UTC https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/716874768 esterkutsak https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/716902011
How do I make sure my students who qualify for services receive the assistance they need in order to be successful? ]]> 2020-09-03 03:35:37 UTC https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/716902011 esterkutsak https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/1014233279 Luckily, even with hybrid learning, our school still provides in-person and online services. Students still go to RSP, ELD, and can be seen by outreach concern if needed.

I have students who are not coming to class, not participating, not turning in their assignments, etc. With that said, their grades have suffered tremendously. Unfortunately, it is significantly harder to get students back on track when there is lack of parental support. I have tried emailing and calling these students' parents, but to no avail. It is a daily struggle, and there is only so much we can control and do with our limited resources. ]]> 2020-12-13 21:50:31 UTC https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/1014243167 esterkutsak https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/1014261063 As I look at this statement, I notice that it's not necessarily curriculum that I needed/need to reteach, but important concepts. For example, my 5th graders just learned how to divide single and double digit numbers. A big problem that I saw this year was that students were lacking fluency in their multiplication facts. I am not necessarily reteaching curriculum, but I do need to go back and practice specific skills that students will need in order to be successful in 5th grade and beyond. On that note, I am really honing in on standards that students need to meet by the end of 5th grade and making sure that they currently have the skills to meet those standards by the end of the school year. I am not looking at "curriculum" per say, but have definitely focused on essential standards.]]> 2020-12-13 22:07:03 UTC https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/1014261063 esterkutsak https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/1014268256 Throughout this course and in the research we conducted for our case study, I have learned so much about social/emotional development. My goal was to find a way to strengthen relationships during hybrid learning, even if it was through a screen. Assigning roles in groups and providing clear and high expectations was the key to group success. Assigning roles forced all students to be engaged and participate in the Nearpod lesson and meet the learning goals for the lesson. Students also held each other accountable, promoting positive interdependence. ]]> 2020-12-13 22:13:42 UTC https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/1014268256 esterkutsak https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/1014276741 I can only control what I can control. For some students, I was able to see right away that someone was helping them at home once they came back in person. Having informative/formative assessments in class has definitely helped me drive instruction based on the results. As for my Zoomers, assessments can only be completed with their cameras on, facing them and their test. This has been the only way I can "control" any type of cheating/help from home. It is easier to monitor now that only half of my class is online, and that I have 2 cohorts. I only have about 6-9 students on Zoom in the morning and in the afternoon. i-Ready Diagnostics have done a great job showing me exactly where students stand in both reading and math. I do take assessments with a grain of salt compared to their overall achievement. However, I will say that it seems pretty accurate when comparing assessment scores and their performance to their academics. ]]> 2020-12-13 22:21:58 UTC https://padlet.com/esterkutsak/axi783u06888n5vm/wish/1014276741
