https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs What do you feel is the most effective/valuable way that you collect data on your students? Why is that most effective/valuable to you? en-us 2023-03-03 17:58:35 UTC 2025-10-13 11:55:34 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4ca.png spiccinich https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2505233997 The most valuable and effective feedback:

1. Math exit tickets and reflection using levels of understanding on a scale of 1-4. Students solve an equation from the lesson and rate their understanding based on our I Can statement. I sort the index cards or look at the exit tickets by correct and incorrect procedure then use this to inform my small group.

2. IXL Recommended Skills- I look at the groupings and pull students based on ELA or Math skills.

3. DRA & Progress Monitor- can track student growth with reading skills. Based on this information, I can look at IXL recommended skills to further support student.

4. Link It- I like the sample worksheets and benchmark tests to support IXL Recommended Skills. I use the test over the course of 2 days. It can be time consuming for individual students to finish, especially if they are absent/reach a certain level of frustration.

The informal student conferencing time allows me to get a better understanding of where the students strengths and weaknesses lie without the pressure of a formalized test. I also believe that Link it gives accurate data in the form of what skills each student is lacking in to better target those skills during instruction. ]]> 2023-03-06 14:23:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2505234177 https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2505350804 The most valuable and effective feedback:

1. IXL recommendations skills: I use this data to make small groups for ELA and Math skills. 

2. DRA & Progress Monitor- use to track student growth through DRA levels. 

3. Link It: I use this data to see what standards we need to work on in small group. ]]> 2023-03-06 15:28:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2505350804 https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2505351983 DRA, DRA progress monitor and Fundations for LA.

I also find IXL to be helpful in looking at the growth students have made and looking at what areas they may still be struggling with or need further intervention/reinforcement of concepts]]> 2023-03-06 16:40:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2505463914 kbalassone https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2505464998 -Informal exit slips (daily)

I also like how it gives feedback on levels for Math and Language Arts that can then be shared with families.
The older students also seem to be incentivized by moving up levels.]]> 2023-03-07 18:08:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2507338649 https://padlet.com/mpeterfriend/psm8wmru3ubv5ugs/wish/2507338796 Exit Slips- Quick and easy way to see where students are.
