Attendance: Gose, Heimann, Nelson, West, Roy
Donor's Choose campaign is still going on.
Still need a LOT of funds to cover the transportation for the trip.
Achieve Challenges - Want to provide student choice but that causes grading challenges. The report for this is significantly longer and difficult to manage.
Heimann - Uses the Thought question as a Mastery grade and Activity Questions as a Progression Grade. He is seeing some very good responses to the thought questions.
Gose - Conferences with students about Achieve at least once a week about what Achieve is telling them. Challenges students who are not taking the assessments seriously (just clicking). Pointing out successes with lower kids. Lower kids get excited about Achieve days!
Heimann has seen students "level up"
Would continue using Achieve if teaching HAVPA next year.
They do not find that it has enough relative content for the performance content.
Mini Embedded PD - Frayer Models and 2 Column Notes
Feedback - Use Frayer Model for the Blooms Questions starters... "Evaluate" "Analyze" help students know what these words mean.
How many vocabulary words should the students be learning at a time?
