Partnering Assessment with Tier I instruction
Click Here To Access The Agenda
Regional Meetings are 2.5 hours in length. For Specific start times, please see below.
During our regional meetings this year, we have reviewed the necessity of a renewed emphasis on Tier I instruction. We have defined proven techniques improve whole group instruction. We also discussed what should be present in our curriculum to address student achievement and equal access for all students. The next logical move is to address assessments.
Join us for our last in a three-part series on Whole Group/Tier I instruction as we explore how to create and sustain the practice of regular assessment and reteaching. Some highlights include:
- The art of the exit ticket and how use them to your instructional advantage
- The virtues of scoring guides and rubrics- how to create them and how/when to use them
- Additional assessment ideas and samples
Target Audience: Educational leaders, Instructional Coaches, and Curriculum writers will find this meeting informative and very helpful.
We hope to see you at the scheduled Spring Regional Meeting near you!
