Baseline+Data


 * __Baseline Data__**

I analyzed the reading and math test results from the fourth grade Dakota STEP from the eMetric site. I decided that I needed to address a couple reading standards as well as a couple of math standards. It seemed that these standards could be included in one unit of study. I also thought that I needed to work on both the math and reading standards throughout the year.

M.M.1, Apply measurement concepts in practical applications. M.N.1 Use structural characteristics of a set of real numbers and its various subsets. M.N.3 Develop conjectures, predictions, or estimations in the process of problem solving and verify or justify the results.

R.4.1 Gather and organize information for research purposes.

R.4.2 Use text and graphic features to categorize information and to gain meaning from informational material.

I also used achievement series tests in math and reading to guide my instruction.
