Action Plan Summary for 2007-08

Reading

• Pull-out services to meet the needs of students, identified as at risk by not currently meeting standards, are provided by our Interventionists using a Flexible Delivery System Model.  These services provide instruction so that student not currently making acceptable progress will be able to do so.

• Continuous assessment will be used to drive instruction of reading comprehension applying the CARS reading comprehension strategies tools for grades 1-6.

• DIBELS assessments, data, and progress monitoring will provide guidance for teachers to meet the needs of our students in all settings.
• Grade 1-6 will utilize Accelerated Reader and STAR, collecting data at the beginning and the end of the school year.
• Analyze the current test data to  adjust instruction to meet the needs of our students.
• Review data and utilize current data: ISAT, ITBS, DIBELS, CARS, ISEL, DRA, QRI.
• Parents will be taught reading strategies with their children through the LAFF Program.
• After school Academic Intervention each quarter for targeted students.

Math

• Houghton-Mifflin Math, Accelerated Math, Mountain Math, Math Problem Solving Stategies and other related resources will be used to teach key math concepts and to promote higher order thinking skills and problem solving strategies.
• Professional Development will be provided to focus of how to effectively teach, model, and practice problem-solving skills along, with Extended Written Response in math as required on ISAT, at all grade levels.
• Grade 1-6 will utilize Accelerated Math and STAR, collecting data at the beginning and the end of the school year.
• Creation of a vertically aligned blueprint listing essential math skills to be mastered at each of the K-6 grade levels, along with a time table for their delivery and the means of assessment them.
