I worked with the Academic Dean in learning targets across the curriculum and how they apply to various subjects. Teachers use learning targets to help guide lessons and keep students on track with their daily learning. This is in order to best gauge what learning strategies students need as a whole or for differentiated instruction.
I work with the Academic Dean, SPED Coordinator, TELPAS Testing Counselor to review post-testing data (interim, benchmark, MAP). This data is used by administrators and teachers to help guide future lessons and target areas students may need further support in.
I worked with the Reading Resource teacher to decide on best reading passage for students in a sheltered reading class. Choices were based on past readings, current area of study, and accessible text to best meet the needs of students.
This spring, I met with our ITS to review campus PD and collaborate about creating a database for a Math teacher seeking to create an end-of-year research project. Together we looked at our database of collected lessons and lesson templates to help provide the best support and information for the particular lesson.
I am most proud of my collaborations with our Academic Dean and SPED Coordinator. Through our work together I have been able to attend meetings that focus on campus-wide initiatives. Because my background is ELAR, I am unfamiliar with target areas in which they hope to see students supported and improve. In these collaborations and meetings, I am to take the information and find lessons and strategies to help support teachers. Most recently, we reviewed data from district testing to identify
areas students still struggle in. From there I was able to suggest Library resources that teachers could use on demand in their classes. When considering outcomes, we will review the next set of data to track student growth and improvement.
