It's a Process
Essential Questions

What is the importance of teachers doing the assignments the students are asked to do?
What does "demonstrating proficiency" of content standards look like?

Problem
D-STEP scores on South Dakota Content Reading Standards within Indicators R.3 and R.5 have been consistently low in 2009 and 2010.
Source: SD DOE Reading Up (2010).
Hypotheses
Assessment questions are poorly written and they are not aligned to our SD content standards.
The rigor at which the standards are addressed in classroom is not meeting the rigor of questioning on assessment.
South Dakota Content Standards in Practice
50% of the questions on the DSTEP are written at or above the taxonomy level indicated in the standards
SD Content Reading Standard - 3.R.5.3 (Application) Students can collect information from two reference materials.

“Rigor is the goal of helping students develop the capacity to understand content that is
complex, ambiguous, provocative, and personally or emotionally challenging.”

11Steps of the Standards In Practice™ Model
1. We all complete the assignment.
2. We analyze the demands of the task.
3. We identify the standards that apply to the assignment.
4. We generate a rough scoring guide from the standards and the assignment.
5. We score the student work, using the guide.
6. We analyze the student work for pervasive problems. We then plan action at the classroom, school, and district
levels, to ensure that all students meet the standards.

SIP™ Steps
1. Do the assignment - individually
2. Analyze demands of task (Skills): comprehension, analyzing, evaluating,
inferring...
3. Identify Standard/s 3.R.5.3 Students can collect information from
two reference materials.
The student knows how to use text features in non-fiction text.
During Conferencing:
4 - Ideal The student displays understanding of how to use the text features in nonfiction text. The student can easily describe how the features in his or her text help him or her understand the text.
3 - Adequate The student sometimes displays understanding of how to use the text features in nonfiction text. The student can describe how the features in his or her text help him or her understand the text.
2 - Deficient in one key area
The student displays some understanding of how to use the text features in nonfiction text. The student cannot easily describe how the features in his or her text help him or her understand the text. The student displays some confusions.
1 -Deficient in two key areas
The student displays little to no understanding of how to use text features in nonfiction text. The student displays confusions.
Step 4 - Create a scoring tool (Rubric)
Step 5 -Score Student Work
Score student work
Come to consensus
Has student work demonstrated proficiency of skills or would some students benefit from re-teaching? 3's and 4's are "good to go" 1's and 2's need re-teaching
Use this dictionary entry to answer the following question.

* Which dictionary entry gives the BEST meaning for the word pop as it is used in the sentence in the box? Write your answer and tell why that is the best answer.OR* Choose the correct answer. Write another sentence using a different dictionary meaning for the word pop.
Step 6 - Revise for Rigor
