INTENSIVE ENGLISH LITERACY(IE Pre-Secondary 11-year-old-Secondary)SELECTIVE UNIT 5 (S05) (Goal Setting Using MAP Data) Reading: MAP Goal Setting Writing: MAP Goal Setting (Language Usage)(July 2014)Unit Statement: Setting goals can be a powerful tool in motivating the student to learn.? Realistic and achievable goals allow a student to be in control of his/her own learning, which can lead to feelings of competence and higher interest in school.? In this unit, teachers will use MAP data to find the strengths and weaknesses of students in specific areas of reading and language usage.? With teacher guidance, the student will set attainable goals to improve specific reading and language usage skills and strategies.? This unit is designed to be open all year. It is primarily intended to be used by select students identified by the teacher; however, it can be used by the whole class at teacher discretion. Please keep in mind that student data is very private and not to be exposed to other students in the classroom.Essential Outcomes: (must be assessed for mastery)This is a step-by-step process that should be followed to achieve success (see appendix):The Student Will analyze and discuss, after the fall MAP test, the fall Student Goal Setting Worksheet with the teacher to identify strengths and areas of concern in reading or language usage.TSW identify one reading/language usage goal strand with an area of concern.TSW choose 3 or 4 learning statements on the Descartes Continuum within that reading/language usage goal strand to focus on for improvement.TSW write goal(s) on the Student Goal Setting Worksheet. TSW engage in teacher-provided activities related to the goal and learning statements.TSW monitor goals throughout the year to check progress (with teacher support).TSW analyze the spring Student Goal Setting Worksheet with the teacher and reflect on progress made on the Reflection Sheet.Key-Terms: (*taken directly from NWEA training resources)Descartes Continuum*Indicates skills and concepts that parallel the RIT scaleIdentifies content at students’ instructional levelsAligned with your state standards’ goal structure and contentGoal StrandsList of reading and language usage concepts assessed by MAPSome goal strands include: foundation skills, literature, informational text, etc.Learning StatementsSkills found in the Descartes Continuum.“Concern in Reading or Language Usage”Areas of weakness in reading or language usageRIT*An equal-interval scale, with scores commonly ranging between 100-300Measures academic growth like a yardstick measures physical growthNot grade-level dependentAligns with both normative data and instructional content and skillsEssential Resources:Student Goal Setting WorksheetDirections for Finding Student Goal Setting WorksheetDescartes Continuum printed from Class by RIT Report for each studentHighlighters to highlight learning statements on Descartes ContinuumReflection SheetGoal Setting Participation RubricSuggested Assessment Tools:Attached rubric or teacher-generated rubric that assesses ALL essential outcomes (TSWs). ?An effective rubric is presented and discussed with the student at the beginning of the unit, referred back to throughout the unit, and used to assess at the end. Students will collaborate with peers and the teacher to assess their own writing with final judgement by the teacher.Writing Pathways (Units of Study Kit) by Lucy Calkins provides rubrics and checklists for teachers and students.Teachers can have students produce a quick write at the beginning and end of units. (*See QSI Quick Write Guidelines) ?Teachers should keep these as evidence of students’ writing.Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark Assessment / DRAQSI Reading and Writing Behaviors Checklists (*See QSI Literacy User’s Guide)MPG (MAP for Primary Grades): Early Literacy Screening and Skills Checklists (*See QSI Literacy User’s Guide)Technology Links:This is the original NWEA site. It is filled with many resources. is where teachers log in to access teacher reports for MAP testing. is the link to Partner Support. At this link, you will see a bar of gray with white titles. The titles are: All Resources, Professional Development, Test Administration, Reports, and Troubleshooting. If you click on each tab, you will see a new set of tabs below that can help you with a huge variety of questions. this link, you will find the professional development section of the NWEA support materials. Under the professional development tab, you will see several tabs appear below. These titles are: MAP Foundation Series, Knowledge Academy, Online Training, Modules. The MAP Foundation Series are the four workshops that QSI schools will be trained in over the next few years. There are four workshops. The three core workshops aimed at helping teachers and schools with understanding data are: Stepping Stones to Using Data, Climbing the Data Ladder, and Growth and Goals. These three workshops are broken into “modules” found in the other tab. All the MAP Foundation workshop content must be delivered by a trained NWEA Facilitator.Knowledge Academy is free to each school but your MAP Coordinator must give you an additional (different than reports login) username and password. Knowledge Academy is a series of online workshops that allow teachers to understand more about how to use MAP results in the classroom. “Online Training” offers online workshops for teachers. They are free and easy to take. MAP Basics is essential for any teacher who has never given MAP before. Modules tab is the MAP Foundation Series broken into parts.EVALUATION RUBRICS FOUND ON FOLLOWING PAGES…………………….SUGGESTED RUBRIC IE LITERACY PS E13Name: _______________________ Date: _______________________To receive a ‘B’, the student must show ‘B’ level mastery on all essential outcomes (TSW’s).To receive an ‘A’, the student must show ‘A’ level mastery in all available ‘A’ level TSW’s and ‘B’ level mastery on all of the remaining TSW’s.TSW‘A’ Level‘B’ Level P - Commentsanalyze and discuss, after the Fall MAP test, the Student Goal Setting Worksheet with the teacher to identify strengths and areas of concern in reading or language usage.The student uses the Student Goal Setting Worksheet to explain to the teacher the strengths and areas of concern in reading or language usage.identify one reading or language usage goal strand with an area of concern.The student identifies, with teacher guidance, one reading or language usage goal strand with an area of concern.choose 3 or 4 learning statements on the Descartes Continuum within that reading or language usage goal strand to focus on for improvement.The student chooses, with teacher guidance, 3 or 4 learning statements to focus on.write goal(s) on the Student Goal Setting Worksheet.The student neatly, clearly, and accurately writes his/her goals on the Student Goal Setting Worksheet.engage in teacher-provided activities related to the goal and learning statements.The student engages in activities provided by the teacher and is evaluated using the attached Goal Setting Participation Rubric.The student engages in activities provided by the teacher and is evaluated using the attached Goal Setting Participation Rubric.monitor goals through the year to check progress (with teacher support).The student is evaluated on the Goal Setting Participation Rubric.The student is evaluated on the Goal Setting Participation Rubric.analyze the spring Student Goal Setting Worksheet with the teacher and reflect on progress made.The student clearly, neatly, and accurately completes the Reflection Sheet.
