Math


Student is in a small resource special education class for math instruction. We are working towards the grade level Carnegie math curriculum all 8th graders are using in the district but at a slower rate, with more scaffolding, and focusing on the big skill acquisition. We use supportive material as needed. Specific skills like the distributive property, order of operation, fractions, percents, proportions, and integers are all reviewed and taught to develop algebra skills. One of the goals of this class is to prepare students for Algebra and solving two step equations. Additionally, we use an internet skills practice program which is part of the Carnegie program called Mathia. Student is working on the middle school RTI level material as an intervention. This program is used to reinforce and practice the specific skill listed above.

Current goal progress:

STAR math:

A review of her math progress on classroom quizzes suggest the following areas of need:

8th graders are able to solve problems involving, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, ratios, proportions and able data analysis at an 8th grade level. They are scoring at the 50%tile or above on districtwide standardized assessments.


Reading

XXXXX is in a small resource class for reading using the grade level program Engage New York at a slower rate with more scaffolding. All of the material is presented orally in class with frequent discussions to enrich comprehension and vocabulary development. XXXXXX enjoys reading aloud and participating with peers in small groups.

On his latest STAR test, XXXXX scored at the 2nd percentile and is reading at the 3rd grade level. His last three STAR test scores where at the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th percentile. The instructional planning report states XXXXXX should focus on making and supporting a claim with textual evidence. On his last 6 assignments focusing on reading comprehension, XXXXXX scored an average of 69 percent correct.

8th graders are able to decode and comprehend grade level material with 80% accuracy or better which includes demonstrating proficiency with making and a supporting claim using textual evidence. They are able to score at the 40th percentile or above on district wide reading assessments.

Writing

XXXXXX is in a small resource class for reading and writing using the grade level Engage New York program. This class goes at a slightly slower pace with more scaffolding, modeling and support. He uses Read Write for Google Chrome on a Chrome Book frequently in ELA even though he has very legible handwriting. Using technology for writing makes editing and the use of writing templates more efficient.



XXXXXXX wrote a paragraph for his latest written assignment. Using a 4 point scale rubric, he scored a 2.5 on organization writing a topic sentence, supporting sentences, and a conclusion. He had support from the teacher on organization for this assignment. On the same assignment he scored a 1 for correct use of language. XXXXXX made a number of mistakes with the correct use of capital letters and punctuation. He also had a couple of run-on sentences.


8th graders are able to compose paragraphs with solid introductory statements, details, elaborations and concluding statements independently, 90% accuracy or above. 8th graders use correct conventions and grammar within their writing.

IEP notes about minutes:

IEP services time is reflective of the current Hybrid schedule. During the Hybrid schedule XXXXXX attends school in person 2 days per week with remote learning opportunities 3 days per week. Classes are on a 16 day block rotation (ex. Rotation 1 is period 1 and period 2, rotation 2 is period 3 and period 4, etc.) XXXXX will have special education classes during rotations X and X. Class periods are in the intensive block are 150 minutes each, the IEP services minutes are an average of this time combined with remote service during off weeks over the course of the semester.

Self-Help and Independence

Student is in a Learning Strategies class in place of one exploratory class this year to help assist with organization and work completion skills. In this class the students are practicing how to keep track of assignments, prioritize work, study, and receive assistance on school work as needed with time to practice reading, typing, and math skills when students are organized and caught up. Over the course of the year, McKenzie has been productive at time and resists doing her work at other times. When she is absent McKenzie does not seek out teachers to ask for assignments that she missed.


8th grade students are able to complete homework assignments on their own and pass all their classes.

In this class the students are practicing how to keep track of assignments, prioritize work, study, and receive assistance on school work as needed with time to practice reading, typing, and math skills when students are organized and caught up. Madison is able to receive help with reading grade level assignments, understanding what to do, and completing her homework during this class. She has an A in this class based on her work ethic, improved organizational skills, and time on task.

In her Learning Strategies class she asks for help frequently and if she doesn't initiate asking for help she will ask for it when the teacher circulates and checks for understanding. She prioritizes assignments about 75%of the time on her own.

8th graders are able to complete homework assignments on their own, at home.
