To Do:• Select one assessment from the
learning segment that you will use to evaluate your students’ developing knowledge and skills.
• Submit the assessment used to evaluate student performance.
• Define and submit the evaluation criteria you will use to analyze student learning.
• Collect and analyze student work from the selected assessment to identify quantitative and qualitative patterns of learning within, and across learners in, the class.
• Select 3 student work samples to illustrate your analysis of patterns of learning within, and across learners in, the class.
At least 1 of the samples must be from a student with specific learning needs.
Quantitative measurement:
measurement of data that can be put into numbers. The goal of quantitative measurement is to run statistical analysis, so data has to be in numerical form.
Qualitative measurement: focuses on collecting information that is not numerical. You can remember this by thinking of the word 'quality.' Quality is not something that you measure with numbers. You don't say that dinner was 3 qualities, or that park bench is only 1 quality. Likewise, qualitative data is not numerical. Instead of statistical analysis, the goal of qualitative measurement is to look for patterns and get a general feel for how things are.
These 3 students will be your focus students.
Summarize the learning of the whole class, and refer to work samples from the three focus students to illustrate patterns in student understanding across the class.
Submit feedback on the assessment for the 3 focus students in written, audio, or video form.
Analyze evidence of students’ language use from: (1) the video clips from the instruction task, (2) an additional video clip of one or more students using language within the learning segment, AND/OR the student work samples from the assessment task.
Analyze your assessment of student learning and plan for next steps by responding to commentary prompts.
Tips Analyzing Student Learning See Page 31 in Handbook
Assessments:• should allow the students to demonstrate
their thinking in some way• could be formal or informal, formative or
summative• need to result in evidence of student
learning according to evaluation criteria• should be aligned with the central focus,
content standards, and stated learning objectives
Feedback to Guide Further LearningSee Page 32 in Handbook
• Feedback should offer students clear and specific information on their performance around the lesson objectives/standards and align with the evaluation criteria.
• Students should be made aware of their errors and their strengths.
Analyzing Students' Academic Language UseSee Page 32 in Handbook
• Provide evidence that your students were able to use academic language (identified function, vocabulary, and additional identified demands) to develop content understandings
• Support your explanations by citing specific evidence from video clip(s) or student work samples
• Describe how students meet your identified academic language demands in ways that further their understanding of the content to be learned
Your examples need to go beyond students just parroting back definitions of unfamiliar words. Examples should reveal students’ understanding of vocabulary and their ability to demonstrate the key language function identified in your Planning task commentary.
Assessment Informing InstructionSee Page 32 in Handbook
“Next Steps”Should detail the instructional moves you plan to make going forward, not only for the class in general but also for the three focus students in particular.
Reference a variety of student learning needs and strengths in your commentary. For example, if you discover that some students struggle with one of the skills taught, make consistent errors, or apply only a portion of a strategy you have taught, what will you do in order to help those students meet the learning objectives they wereunable to meet?
These next steps may include additional feedback/instruction to students, a specific instructional activity/learning task, or other forms of re-engagement to support or extend learning of the targeted objectives/standards.
Include Do Not Include
Analysis of an assessment that allows students to display a range of understanding of the specified subject-specific elements of your central focus
A focus on important trends in student performance, supported by examples from the work samples
Focus students whose work samples represent a range of performance on the assessment
Concrete evidence of feedback for each focus student
Concrete evidence of academic language use (video clip and/or student work samples)
A lengthy list of standards and/or objectives, not closely related to the assessment analyzed
An assessment that only allows students to display a narrow range of knowledge and skills
An assessment that was completed by a group of students, not individually
Superficial analysis of student learning
Misalignment between evaluation criteria, learning objectives, and/or analysis
Identifying next steps for learning that are not related to your analysis of student learning
Connection to Previous Lesson (Bugs, Bugs, Bugs)
Essential Literacy StrategyRI 2.2. Identify the main topic of a multiparagraph text as well as the focus of specific paragraphs within the text.
Requisite Skill4. Determine the meaning of words and phrases in a text relevant to a grade 2 topic or subject area.
After Additional Lessons 2RI.2Literacy StrategyTask (Texts chosen by teacher)• Read informational text (with 3 paragraphs) at your
reading level with some unknown vocabulary. • Determine the main idea of each paragraph. • Explain how you determined the main idea by using
evidence from the text. (Above Level Group)• List supporting details• Determine the Main Topic of the entire text• Explain how you determined the Main Topic by using
evidence from the text. (Above Level Group)
After Additional Lessons 2RI.2Requisite Skill: Vocabulary in Context
Above Level:• Students choose challenging vocabulary in the text.• Determine the meaning of the chosen vocabulary through
context. (Process of doing this should have been previously addressed in other lessons)
• Explain how the text and text structure supported understanding of the vocabulary.
• Confirm meaning of chosen vocabulary (either by using a resource a teacher-created activity)
• Create a game; poem; activity with the newly learned vocabulary
• Apply the new vocabulary

Below Level:• Teacher chooses challenging vocabulary in the text.• Students determine the meaning of the chosen vocabulary
through context using supports. (Process of doing this should have been previously addressed in other lessons)
• Explain how the text and text structure supported understanding of the vocabulary using supports.
• Confirm meaning of chosen vocabulary (either by using a resource a teacher-created activity)
• Create a game; poem; activity with the newly learned vocabulary using supports
• Apply the new vocabulary using supports
Supports• Use Sentence Frames (especially for academic
language)• Use a variety of graphic organizers• Use specific task cards to break activity into
sequence or specific components• Use pictures, diagrams etc.• Display anchor charts of previous learning for
students to refer to (Key details, who, what etc.)
• Display vocabulary word walls with pictures
2RI.2 Supports
• Students sort words into groups and determine an appropriate title (the main idea) for each of the groups.
• Students are given a main idea topic and have to come up with supporting details.
• Students are given supporting details and have to determine the main idea. • Students are given several related words and have to determine which of the
words represents the main idea.
Finally, students practice main idea and details within text. • Students are given a paragraph, and they have to determine which sentence
in the paragraph does not belong because it does not support the main idea. • Students are given a short paragraph and 4 sentences about the paragraph.
They must determine which sentence represents the main idea of the paragraph, and which sentences are details.
