This document outlines the assessment plan for the new literacy curriculum, focusing on the Core Knowledge Language Arts (CKLA) framework. A team of educators analyzed current assessments, determining which ones to include based on purpose, frequency, quality, and alignment with CKLA. Grading will utilize established rubrics and guidelines, translating CKLA scores into marking period grades. Data from assessments will guide instructional strategies, with bi-monthly meetings allowing teachers to analyze data and plan targeted re-teaching efforts.
