Using Assessment Data1. What are the goals for the grade level?

2. Who has met the goals?

3. What specific area(s) do most of our students need work?

4. Is this an area we have taught already, or has it not yet been addressed in the curriculum?

5. Where should we concentrate our efforts for all of our students? (Remember we look at the big picture first)

6. What are some effective strategies that will help our students meet their grade level goals?

7. What do we need to do as a team to make this happen for our students?

8. What should we do to make sure we all use this strategy as planned? Monitoring, assessments, etc.
