All team members present
*Collaborative scoring on a writing piece from Cathy's student
What we noticed-it's an opinion writing, student was able to state the thesis and point of each paragraph, use of transition words, mature thought about "I'm lucky to have a dad," very concise with limited run-on sentences, well-organized
Questions-was this a published piece? How long did this take? Did you follow all of it Boxes and Bullets?
Cathy-Yes, this was a published piece based on Lucy Calkins. If took a few weeks. I used much of it, but not all of it. It was one of my higher students.
We found it helpful to assess because we are all instructing the same thing which gives us more of a background. We found that it was helpful to share out time frame for completion. Helps to keep the team on track with the year-long plan. It would be helpful for us to see 3 levels from one class to see each other's perception of low, average, high.
Bring & Brag-discussed what everyone is bringing to the meeting on Wednesday
Math-Goal is to complete Unit 4 by 12/25. The pre-assessment needs to be done before Christmas break. Some are on track, others are not.
