ADVANCED BAND SCORES
NCLB emphasizes the percentage of students who score “At or Above Proficient” – the scores in GREY.
However, recently Orange has measured success based on the percentage of students “At or Above Goal” – the scores in blue.
Beginning this year, we’ll also track the % of students “At Advanced,” thus setting goals for achievement on the two highest bands in scoring.
Advanced Band scores are shown in GREEN on the previous two slides.
Remarkable in the Advanced Band: Grade 4 Math – 47% Advanced Grade 5 Math – 57% Advanced Grade 6 Math – 60% Advanced Grade 6 Writing – 46% Advanced

We continue to analyze and modify instruction for our youngest group of test takers. For Grade 3 students, this is their first experience with the CMT, so we closely study their results. In addition to their skills, their short-term test preparation, as well as their test-taking endurance are factors in their success.

GRADE 3 READING
The Reading Score – 76% at Goal -- is up from last year’s score 72%; it closely matches our in-house assessments and predictions. ‘Reader-to-Text Connections’ continues to be an area of need.

The Grade 3 average DRP score of 53 slightly exceeds the grade-level DRP expectation of 47.
GRADE 3 WRITINGThe Writing Score – 75% at Goal – is up from the previous year’s score of 73%.
The average holistic score on the writing sample was 8.9 out of 12, up from 8.6 last year; the goal is 8.
Grade 3 and Grade 4 teachers will look closely at the Writing data, particularly Composing and Revising which is consistently a relative weakness in our curriculum.

GRADE 3 MATHThe Math Score – 81% at Goal -- is down 5 pts. from the previous year’s score of 86%.
They scored between 94 – 100% in 13 of the 18 strands that are tested in Grade 3.
The strongest and weakest strands are listed below. Strand 25 continues to be our nemesis. See sample on Slide #23 the end of this presentation.
Our new math curriculum is strong in problem-solving and applications of mathematical processes.
Mathematical Strand % at Mastery
Pictorial Representation 100%
Order, Magnitude, and Rounding 100%
Geometric Shapes and properties 100%
Computation with Whole Numbers and Decimals 99%
Probability and Statistics 99%
Approximating Measures 81%
Estimating Solutions to Problems 71%
Mathematical Applications 63%14
2012: GRADE 4 These students improved this year over their Grade 3 scores, making especially
notable gains in both Reading and Writing. The improvement in Writing at both the Goal and Advanced levels is noteworthy.

2012: GRADE 5
This class has achieved steady increases across all three tests over the past two years and is scoring about 20 points above the State averages.
In addition, they took their first Science CMT and did very well; 90% reached Goal and 98% reached Proficiency. Two sample Science items, typical of this new test can be found at the end of this presentation on Slide 25.

2012: GRADE 6 The Grade 6 test takers make a significant leap in
Reading from 76% at Goal to 91% at Goal; their improvement of 10 points in the Advanced band was significant as well.
Their 60% at Advanced in Math is especially noteworthy.
It’s important to keep in mind, that when scores are high, there is less room for substantial gain.

There are 20 elementary districts in Orange’s DRG (Demographic Reference Group). These include towns such as Avon, Cheshire, Fairfield, Granby, Monroe, Simsbury, West Hartford, and Woodbridge. Below are our standings within our DRG.
At each grade-level, and in each subject area, our students at Goal should fall in the top ½ of our DRG, as they do in circles shown below.

READING DISTRICT-WIDE
The reading test at each grade level includes a ‘Degrees of Reading Power’ (DRP) average score and % at Goal for the following strands, which require students to also write responses to open-ended questions:

DISTRICT-WIDE CURRICULAR ISSUES
**Strand #3 – “Making Connections” in Reading requires students to meaningfully connect what they have read in a sample passage to their own lives or to other texts they have read. Connections questions include: Tell why or why not you would like to have [character’s name] as a
friend? Think about someone you know who has done something
courageous. How is that person like [character’s name] in this story? What kind of person do you think the author of this story is?
• District-wide, our goal is the implementation of the new Math curriculum, Math Expressions, which is aligned to the Common Core of Standards, features fewer strands per year, and emphasizes applications and problem-solving.

The Relay Race
Tom, Bob, and Vic are racing against each other in a 100 meter dash. In how many different orders could they finish the race, assuming that ties are possible.
That is, one finishing order could be Bob, then Tom, and then Vic; another could be Tom and Vic in a tie, and then Bob.
Show all the different orders in which the race could end – including possible ties.
