PROFICIENCY

Reporting Standards

• A Superset, not a subset of the standards• If students learn this, then they can do that• Should be evaluated using a body of evidence

scoring guide rather than an item scoring guide (a.k.a. rubric)

• Perhaps look to Achievement Level Definitions (ALD) to determine evaluation criteria

Low Road Transfer Opportunity

• Low road transfer provides information about progress toward proficiency

• In your curriculum and instructional planning, how do you create low road transfer?

• How often should students have the opportunity to experience low road transfer?

• What are some strategies that support LRT?

High Road Transfer Opportunity

• If a student is an excellent reader of poetry, will that student also be an excellent reader of manuals and other technical texts?

• If a student is an excellent creative writer, will that student necessarily be an excellent expository writer?

• What is the relationship between HRT and CCR?

Writing Outside Your Comfort Zone

• Using the cards, select the standards that would represent a unit culminating in a writing assignment you don’t usually or have never assigned– May be a unit focused on the mentor texts before this

unit

Rubrics

• Use with DOK 3 or 4 items– Applied to multiple standards and rarely a single

standard• Include transfer as a factor for consideration• Determine range – 2, 3, 4, 6?

– Why would you want varying ranges of rubric levels? • Consider the Maine Warden Service rubric for

writing.

Your Rubrics

• What rubrics do you use?• When do you use them?• What qualities do you include?• With a partner, review and discuss a rubric you

have with you today.
