Math Mid-Year Report
2009-2010
Team Members: Lindsay Gaddy, Lisa Stark, Paul Dwyer, Barb Palmer, Jane Anderson, Gail Kuhl and Michelle Clark
School Improvement Goal:

We, all teaching staff at George Long Elementary,
will improve all student skills in number and
operations by 10% in 3rd, 4th, 5th grade on the fall
2010 MEAP Math Assessment. Students 2nd, 3rd, 4th,
and 5th grade will improve skills in number and
operations by 10% based on May 2010 County Wide
Common Assessment. Students in kindergarten and
1st grade will achieve 80% on the end of year Spring
2010 assessment created by the district based on
GLCE’s in number and operations.
Objective 1:
Teaching for Learning

Teachers will provide written practice on the
identified three lowest GLCE’s at grade level within
number and operations strand twice a week, thereby
aiding in creating a math rich culture.



Identified 3 weakest GLCE’s within strand
Provided example practice problems
Exposure to problems at least twice weekly
Everyday Math, Supplemental Materials and Study Island
Evidence of Action

Teachers are providing practice through:

Morning Seatwork
Daily Warm-ups
Calendar Time
Study Island Practice



Not as consistent as should be. Continuing to revisit goal. Made adjustments to common
planning schedule to allow consistency of meetings.
Objective 2:
Teaching for Learning

Teachers will evaluate and collect data from pre, mid
and post year assessment to assess growth of all
students in numbers and operations.

Assessments created using Exam View and Everyday Math
Pre-test administered in October
PDSA cycle at grade level to assess data from pre-test
Mid-test being given in February. Using the data collected a
plus/delta will be completed and the previous PDSA revisited and
revised.
