Step 1: Examine the Data • Categorized by administered tests • Student scores • Grouping designations © 2014 Core Knowledge Foundation. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution. Non. Commercial-Share. Alike 3. 0 Unported License. www. creativecommons. org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3. 0/ 5
Interpreting Scores: Individual Child Designations • In first and second grade, there are formal charts to help use assessment data. • In K, the ‘group’ designation is more qualitative and based on trends of unit assessments. © 2014 Core Knowledge Foundation.

General Guidance for K • Group 1: Child is well prepared (outstanding, strong) for the next step (e. g. , in K for Unit 6; for 1 st and 2 nd, assessment determines how prepared child is for grade-level material). • Group 2: Child is adequately prepared for the next step (but may have some vulnerability and/or need targeted practice/targeted reinforcement to manage the next step). • Group 3: Child has questionable preparation for the next step. This child may require significantly slowing pace and/or may not be prepared for the grade-level material without significant support. © 2014 Core Knowledge Foundation.
