Based on test data, students will be working on topics they are still struggling with in small groups.

Warm ups:

1.     ISTEP problem

2.     ISTEP Problem

3.     ISTEP Problem

4.     ISTEP Problem

5.     ISTEP Problem

Students will be working in small groups with me coming around to help them.  The amount of work will be individualized for each kid, based on test data. Students who have mastered certain objectives will be used in peer tutoring.

Warm ups will be included in the HOW grade

At the end of the week another quiz will be given over all 20 objectives.  If the score is higher, then it will replace the lower ones.

By week 8, most should have about 80% or more of the topics mastered.  Using test data, I will see what else needs to be reviewed.  I am also going to have some enrichment problems for them to do.  These are problems that use the objectives they have learned, but apply them in a word problem to see if they can pull out the information.

Warm ups:

1.     ISTEP problem

2.     ISTEP Problem

3.     ISTEP Problem

4.     ISTEP Problem

5.     ISTEP Problem

The day before the quiz we will play kahoot. 

Some students will still be working with me, while others will be doing some enrichment problems to try to expand on this 9 weeks topic.

Warm ups will be included in the HOW grade

Another quiz will be given.  Keep in mind the quizzes do progressively get a little bit harder as we move through the 9 weeks.  This is to keep it from being too easy for those that pick it up really quickly.

Kahoot will be used for extra credit for the top 5 scores

Although this is the last 9 weeks with these 20 concepts, they will reappear throughout the year.  Each 9 weeks takes them a step further or applies them differently.  This is why the 1st 9 weeks is so important to get that foundation for the rest of the year.

Warm ups:

1.     ISTEP problem

2.     ISTEP Problem

3.     ISTEP Problem

4.     ISTEP Problem

5.     ISTEP Problem

Will be individualizing instruction using peer tutoring, small group work, or other options to try to get the last few students up to par.  

If that isn’t needed, then we will do some enrichment problems.

Warm ups will be included in the HOW grade

Pardon quiz over all 20 objectives.  The pardon quiz again will replace all lower quiz scores
