  2. DIFUSING THE Bomb

  3. SCHOOL-WIDE Collaboration!

  4. HARD-HITTING THOUGHTS FROM CARING COLLEAGUES • “I don't mean to suggest that there is no place for data. Through data, the English department has determined that limited vocabulary is the basis for most of our students' difficulties.”

  5. SCHOOL-WIDE Collaboration!

  6. SCHOOL-WIDE Collaboration!

  7. SCHOOL-WIDE Collaboration!

  8. Individual STUDENT Action Plans

  9. Status Updates? Where are they? • Meet by Regents Subject Area and fill out a Decision sheet emailed to Mr. Nicolopoulos and cc’d to Mr. Link • What have been the areas of greatest challenge to students? • What are you doing differently for individual and groups of students so they learn what the data indicates they did not? • How (type of DDC assessment: multiple choice, open-ended response (paragraph(s) or essay, combination thereof) and when (specific date(s) are you assessing the success of your adjusted teaching? • What dates are you giving assessments in class planning backwards from the Regents Exam?

  10. SCHOOL-WIDE Collaboration! • May to the Regents • May to June concentrated effort on the 2nd floor • Attendance, lateness, classroom procedures. No excuses policy • Hallways clear- Deans, Admin and Teachers at the door. • Eating and drinking in the classroom • Taking notes, how to study, etc.- emphasize the reinforcement of these skills • Student Regents Readiness – SPECIFIC Content and Skills per their individual need based on what you know about them from prior tests (Regents, Mock Regents, in-class quizzes, mid-terms, etc.) • What are your Assessment criteria? • How are you monitoring student learning? • Mock Regents • Academic Interventions • Devising goals for students • Contact with parents

  11. HARD-HITTING THOUGHTS FROM CARING COLLEAGUES • “I know that seems a little romantic, but one of the consistent complaints Iget from students is that they fail to understand why it is that they are learning something. That is why Ibelieve STEAM to be so important - it allows students to be enveloped by ideas, themes, and movements that can electrify their learning experience.”

  12. HARD-HITTING THOUGHTS FROM CARING COLLEAGUES

  13. AcTION PLANS & DECISION SHEETS! • Establish target dates to assess your progress working together towards individual student success • Plan backwards from the day of your MS or Regents exam • Involve students in their own learning and future- vest them in the process! • Know that all systems in our school are working to help you achieve success!

  14. HARD-HITTING THOUGHTS FROM CARING COLLEAGUES • “I was particularly impressed with the presentation that broke essay writing into specific categories. If you recall, the teacher - a lady in white - grouped her students according to the areas where they had shown difficulties. For example, she identified those who had trouble with thesis construction, and differentiated their instruction accordingly. This type of data is useful as it allows teachers to focus their lessons.”
