*Last Benchmark there were 17 students to watch - this benchmark only 10!
Action Steps:
1. These are again the lowest benchmark scores that I have ever had, I realize that due to behaviors I need to
vary my instruction. I have never had a class score lower than the school average, not to mention the
district average. I know that I have a high number of ESOL students that account for these low scores, but I
need to work extremely hard with them - because they ARE capable of meeting their goals.
2. I have continued implementing task lists with my 2 regular ed classes & this still seems to be effective in
controlling behavior/increasing work ethic. I plan on continuing with these.
3. My 2 regular ed classes can always do with more vocabulary practice & word breakdown (word parts) - this
helps especially with my spanish speaking students since some word parts have similar spanish meaning.
4. I need to find something to increase motivation with my 7th block honors class. They know they are smart,
but they are comfortable just being smart, not striving to excel.
5. In my 2 regular ed classes I need to figure out how to get my ESOL population to grasp these abstract
concepts. I will continue with word parts & diagramming to help create a visual representation of ideas.
6. Enrichment & extended knowledge for my high honors class. They performed well, but there is always
room for improvement. One student missed her goal by only 1 point this time. I need them ALL to be
performing at the highest level possible.
7. Integration of longer (more wordy) questions during instruction to gauge the grasp of information. Short
recall questions are no longer effective.
8. All classes - tying together information between topics. If you try hard enough, all learning can be tied
together into one neat package.
9. All classes - working with hypotheses for experimental design & scientific investigations.
10. I plan to continue the use of high energy in the classroom. It seems the higher my energy is, they more
engaged they become on the instruction. The next unit is astronomy (my favorite) - Im hoping that they
can see & feel my excitement when discussing these concepts.
