Hello again, Colleagues, I have another question for you (another in a series, I suppose I should say). If you are privy to the standardized test data in your school (and I hope that you insist that you be if you aren't), what are the most common deficits you are finding among your students and what grade level are you seeing that deficit? For instance, in NY, the 5th grade teams I worked with this summer were seeing an inability to identify main idea and supporting details and to make effective use of graphic organizers. Folks in NJ this month had several elementary grades unable to identify the "mood" of a piece of writing. Again in NY, high school social studies students were struggling with several constructed response questions on the Regents (though I am not remembering the particular content of the questions). Would you be willing to share those areas (anywhere in the curriculum at all grades) where your students are showing deficits? I'll post a hit!
