Writing


Align writing content and intervention activities to state CSAP standards

Incorporate more frequent opportunities for writing process thinking with more frequent and regular formative checks (i.e. Trait analysis and writing prompts practice, comprehension/analysis writing, reading response activities, self-evaluative opportunities for students).

Structure daily literacy learning to provide re-teaching or additional time for practice during and outside of the school day, focusing on Hispanic, ELL, & IEP students.

Math
