Day 2, The Best Laid Plans...

I did not get as much done today as I was hoping … which is pretty typical. I frequently underestimate how long something is going to take! For today, I downloaded each assessment map for Grades 2nd-5th, created a spreadsheet that I will use to track how the students are doing during the assessments. I am struggling with how I want to setup the sheets. I want to use some of the knowledge I have when it comes to workflow and Google Sheets, using formulas to ease my life, so I need to take some time to actually plan out how I want the sheets to work, and what the end product I want when it comes to the sheets might be.

From there, I was able to create question banks for 3.OA.1 & 3.NF.1. I used our math curriculum, Bridges, to do that work. I had not realized that Bridges is setup differently for different grade levels. In 5th grade, in our Teacher Masters, there is a recording sheet that breaks down the assessment by question and attaches a standard to each question. I did not find that for 3rd grade, so it made the process of figuring out which questions to screenshot and add to the document I created much longer!

Tomorrow I will:

Choose the 20% Anchor skills for reading.
Finish at least one more Keystone Standard problem bank.
Finish one assessment for one (or more, have to think about that) anchor skill for writing.
