I learned about what curriculum we used

The two areas I hope to refine my teaching craft as a first year teacher is by making engaging activities and learn more about what works for me when teaching.

One tool I am excited about trying this year is trying out the school resources we are provided.

I learned that Science Standards are 6-8 standards, not by grade level.

I hope to refine my notes so that students write less and we have more time for practice math problems. So more of an interactive notebook. I would like to create more engaging lessons for the students who do enjoy math.

I want to use Moby Max more.

2023-08-02 18:03:13 UTC

I learned about the awesome units each subject/grade level created.
Two areas I hope to refine are pacing and scaffolding to engage all students.
I'm excited to implement this consolidated plan.

RL

2023-08-02 18:03:36 UTC

1. Math curriculum can be integrated into science pretty easily

I desire to create a more seamless integration between the two subjects that I have been teaching.

My number one tech objective this year will be using Flocabulary.

2023-08-02 18:26:43 UTC

I learned how much each teacher does in every subject; their work look overwhelming. They are awesome!

I plan to refine my teaching craft by taking outside professional development courses to better engage my students with fun activities.

I would like to try new/better/more effective supplemental resources, activities, and/or strategies.

Click the "+" and add your Grade/Subject/Course and SMART goal

Math Smart Goal

2023-11-01 20:34:34 UTC

By the second NWEA (by winter break), 80% of students will increase their projected RIT score by at least 4 points or meet the grade level score. This will be accomplished by the use of DII, Blended Learning Instruction, MobyMax, Flocabulary, and site PLC data as evidence of meeting this goal.

7th Grade Science Smart Goal

2023-11-01 20:42:56 UTC

From August 2023 to December 2023 the 7th grades science students will demonstrate at least 10% growth increase in their Science NWEA Scores. This will be accomplished by the use of DII, lab and project activities, study island, and lessons designed to encourage learning by inquiry.

8th Grade Science

2023-11-01 20:43:23 UTC

From August 2023 to December 2023 the 8th grades science students will demonstrate at least 11% growth increase in their Science NWEA Scores. This will be accomplished by the use of DII, lab and project activities, study island, and lessons designed to encourage learning by inquiry.

7th/Social Studies/World History

2023-11-01 20:57:35 UTC

At least 21 students or 12% of the total students in my classes (172) will make test gains of at least 5% by 11-10-23, by reviewing the Drag and Drop questions that are the most frequently missed and placing them in Blooket for test review.

Physical Education (Mile Run)

2023-11-01 21:00:05 UTC

Currently our data shows that 32% of our students are meeting the cardiovascular fitness standard, our goal before the end of the second quarter is to have 50% of our students meet the standard, which implies that students will maintain a sub ten minute mile and, or demonstrate improvement in their mile time, weekly monitoring will be set in place, data will be reviewed every four weeks.

ELA 8 SMART Goals

chadhammond — 2023-11-01 21:02:21 UTC

80% of students will increase their projected NWEA RIT scores by 4 points or meet the grade level by the end of the 1st Semester.

This goal will be accomplished using DII formatted lessons, blended learning, Flocabulary, daily independent reading opportunities.

ELA 7

chadhammond — 2023-11-01 21:05:18 UTC

TBD by November 10, 2023

8th grade US History

2023-11-01 21:07:47 UTC

By 5/17/2024, 50% of students will complete a chapter timeline with a score of 100% (currently at 41%). This will be accomplished through the use of structured and guided practice in completing a template to be used on the final product.
