or ideas that best summarize each of the four performance levels.

Know, Say and Do!

Goldilocks and the 3 Bears

We want growth goals…

1. Not to be too large or too broad, 2. Not to be too small or too vague, 3. But Just Right!

Student Growth Goal Too Narrow JUST RIGHT Too Broad

All 10th grade students (with 100% accuracy) will determine the meaning of the five key literary terms from Springboard unit 1

In the second ¼ of the first semester all students in the 10th grade English class will accurately identify, define, and use the unit one literary vocabulary from Springboard at 80% or better. This growth will be measured through a pre-test, formative assessment, think-write-pair-share, reflective writing, and a post-test. Further evidence of this growth will be that students successfully apply the required vocabulary in a brief poetry analysis essay as measured by part of the assignment rubric. The standard shall be level three on a 4 point scale

All 10th grade students will understand and apply grade level academic vocabulary within their essays and creative writing.

Student Growth Assessments Should

Allow both low- and high-performing students to demonstrate growth.

Challenge the highest-performing students while allowing a struggling student to show what they can do or know.

Measures that help students grow

Select and implement measures that: 1.  support educators to examine their own

practice against specific criteria 2.  allow educators to co-construct the

evaluation 3.  give educators an opportunity to discuss the

results 4.  are directly aligned to leadership standards 5.  include standards that are transparent and

understandable
