Using Student Data NotebooksTomorrow

I can implement data notebooks to track student progress.

Learning Target

Data notebooks are used to assist educators and students in using data to drive instruction. Students gain the opportunity to own their learning. The notebook generally contains student goals, student assessments, objectives, and progress monitoring data.

NOTE: Data Notebooks correlate with Standards Based Grading.

What is a data notebook?

• To implement Standards Based Grading• To help students analyze their progress• To have data to present to parents at

conferences (Parent/ Teacher, RTI, etc.)• To have data to effectively analyze what

we need to do help our students.• To have our students set goals and be

responsible for their own learning.

Our goals for DataNotebooks…

Where to start? Some ideas…

• Classroom Mission Statement• Student Goals• Sight Word Checksheet, Running Record Information, Fluency

Checks• Common assessment data and target sheets for multiple

content areas (i.e. reading, language, and math) Common Assessment (white paper) Practice- If student did not master the unit standards, he or

she will continue to work towards mastery (yellow paper). Retest- Students will take the retest after student has

mastered the practice activities (Green Paper).
