If your data collection is anything like ours (aimsweb) it is useless as far as informing instruction. We waste hours in data team meetings discussing scores that measure how fast a child can read, rather than if he can comprehend. I'd consider myself lucky to be as distanced as possible.

That way the people with the least knowledge of the child can make the most decisions. Perfect sense, I tell you.

Does anyone use 'data teams' to administer ALL 'universal screen' assessments to students? If so, do these data teams include the classroom teacher? Our district is planning to use data teams to administer all universal screens next year (3 times per year) but the teacher will not be a part of that team . . . the plan is for the teacher to meet with those that administered the test (reading teacher, school psych, speech path, sp ed teacher) to get the results . . . any thoughts or personal experiences with such would be appreciated. > > > Jeanne Dionne > 1st Grade Teacher > North Stonington Elementary School > 860-535-2805 ext. 103 > > "Love and respect all children for with the passing of time they become us." > > > > > > All emails using the North Stonington Public School’s email system should conform to BOE Network Policy # 4118.5, and may contain confidential or privileged information.
