Looking forward to doing something often neglected in my classroom: guiding students in #data analysis!

To start: glows & grows of class data by standard; then they'll look at individual data.

Next: students record in their notebook data page.

Finally: determine next steps

I really enjoyed Rick Stiggins’ session on student confidence in #assessment yesterday at the #VisibleLearning conference in Las Vegas.

His writing on balanced assessment has been a huge influence on my work & writing, and it was great to see the continual evolution of his work!

It’s wild how a few words can change your whole outlook on things.

Thankful for my son’s kindness as I’m working late tonight ❤️💙

A full agenda today working alongside
@yheasley.bsky.social to guide a really thoughtful & focused group of @KHSD_Official teachers from 8 school sites in #grading & #assessment reform.

1) The Zero 👻

2) The Traditional Percentage Scale 👻

3) The Average 👻

When combined, these 3 ghosts lead to ghastly inaccurate grades.
