Curriculum:

While the data for this activity focuses on grades 3 and 4, it is understood that writing development begins much earlier. Therefore, CCES will redesign its curriculum to align with CCSS/Writing components in all grades and across all content areas (math, art, science, PE).

Principal, ELA Instructional Coordinator and all teachers.

August, 2013 – May, 2014

Teachers will have samples of student writing in all subject areas. Items for writing are appropriate to the content area and show the student’s ability to communicate through writing.

Assessments: Teachers will maintain samples student writing. They will use that writing to identify areas of strength and articulate areas for further instruction. Examples of writing using cold prompts to those embedded in units of study will be reviewed and analyzed for next steps in teaching.

Samples of student work over the course of the year will be analyzed and measured using the PARCC 3, 4-5 writing rubrics. As rubrics become available in the younger grades, they will be incorporated into the analysis. Until then, teachers will work down from the Grade 3 rubric.

Instruction: Teachers will plan, teach and model writing opinion, informational and narrative pieces across all content areas (math, art, science, PE). Teaching strategies such as Guided Writing practices and group writing will start the process. Teaching students the 6 Traits of Writing will help to solidify understanding of audience, purpose, voice/tone, grammar/usage and mechanics,

Activity 4

Weakness:The social development of our students has not been seen as important as the academic progress our students make. Students have an underdeveloped ability to face social or academic challenges, to resolve conflict with teachers and peers successfully, and to take responsibility for personal actions and the impact it has on the culture and learning of their classroom and school. Deficits in these areas results in lost learning time.

Objective(s):Teachers will be aware of the social/emotional development of CCES students, in addition to being deliberate and proactive in the teaching of discipline. Students will learn and practice the skills necessary to have productive and healthy interactions with peers and teachers, resulting in fewer referrals to the office, thereby increasing learning time.
