Give rating of RED, YELLOW or GREEN to indicate your progress toward meeting this goal. Include information on your current progress toward this goal that explains your rating. Refer to assessment tools and data in your workplan to explain how you are using data to track your progress. || **Next Steps** Outline your next steps toward meeting this goal. || //Fellows learn and implement at least 3 new classroom discipline strategies this year.// || //YELLOW: We have made progress toward meeting this goal but still face some challenges that prevent us from being able to rate this as green at this time. The PD session that we attended was very successful; the exit surveys from Fellows showed that 100% of them acquired at least 2 new classroom management skills in their classrooms. However, 2 Fellows have not seen a decrease in discipline referrals and 1 Fellow has seen an increase in referrals.// || //- A Fellow in the group who has had a decrease in referrals will observe and provide feedback to a Fellow who has had an increase in discipline referrals// //- At our next group meeting (on 10/30) we will have a discussion about the various strategies we are each using and the corresponding results// || //By the end of the school year 80% of the AVID juniors will take at least 3 full length Princeton Review SAT practice tests and 100% will take the SAT in March and/or May 2012.// || YELLOW: //On Saturday, October 29 twenty five of the twenty nine AVID juniors (86.2%) took a full length SAT practice test. I called most of the parents several weeks before the test, constantly reminded students during class, and sent a letter home the week of the test as a final reminder. I am in contact with the parents of the four students who did not take the practice test to have them administer the test to their student at home.// YELLOW: //On Saturday, February 18 twenty six of the twenty eight AVID juniors (92.9%) took a full length SAT practice test. I sent a letter to the parents about the test as a reminder. Students were required to have their parents sign the letter. One of the students who did not take the test had extenuating circumstances.// || //- Send out a letter to parents: 1) encouraging them to go over the results of the first SAT practice test with their student, 2) telling them about the next practice test on Saturday, February 18, and 3) giving them tips on how to help their students prepare for the SAT at home.// //- Provide weekly reminders to students of the upcoming February 18 test.// //-Provide weekly reminders to the students of the upcoming April 14 and April 28 tests.// || //At least 75% of the AVID juniors who participate in at least 3 practice tests will improve their composite practice SAT score (Critical Reading, Math and Writing combined) by at least 100 points as measured by the difference between their initial practice test score and their final practice SAT score as well as the actual SAT.// || YELLOW: //The AVID juniors have completed their first SAT practice test. We do not yet have a second practice test score to which to compare their first.// YELLOW: //The AVID juniors improved their SAT scores by a composite of 122.7 points (from the first test to the second test).// || //- Meet with each student individually to go over their scores, comparing their first score with the median score of their school of first choice.// //- Have successful student ambassadors talk to the students about how SAT strategies have benefited them.// || //Fellow will design a rubric for grading SAT homework and holding students accountable for practicing Princeton Review techniques by October 21, 2011 and will adjust this rubric as needed throughout the school year with a net result of 90% of all AVID juniors completing all SAT homework on time and making a grade of 85% or better.// || YELLOW: //On Friday, September 23, 2011 I devised a grading rubric (with input from Pam Cocke) to grade SAT homework and to bring a measure of accountability to the AVID juniors.// YELLOW: //The rubric I devised was designed to make sure the students were not just bubbling in answers. It was a good idea, but the students found it to be somewhat superflous (and so did I). Instead, I have asked students to show their work in the SAT manual in order to gain full credit. This has been a much more productive use of their time and my own.// || //- Receive input from AVID site team and revise rubric if needed.// //-I found the rubric to be somewhat superfluous and have instead required students toshow their work.// ||
