resources if there are more students in need of intervention than you have resources to help
Do all students represented by your lowest level need urgent intervention
What changes to instruction and intervention need to take place in order to meet your goals
What support will you provide for students who are below benchmark but not receiving intervention
How will you address the needs of students scoring well above benchmark
Can resources be reallocated or schedules be adjusted to provide more support to grades with more students who are in trouble
What do you need to do to meet your goals

Instructional Planning Overview
Instructional Planning
One of the most important aspects of STAR is that it provides data on studentsrsquo knowledge of specific skills The Core Progress Learning Progressions is used to identify the continuum of concepts strategies behaviors and skills students develop as they progress Access Performance Tasks skill probes and teacher activities STAR Record Book is an interactive tool where teachers can view suggested skills to locate a students entry point into Core Progress and form instructional groups

2 If this studentrsquos rate of growth continues where will the student likely end up by the end of the intervention
3 How close is the student to meeting benchmark
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented
as intended and with fidelity Does the intervention need more time to work Has the student been successful enough for the
intervention to end and the student to return to core instruction Or what additional support or monitoring might be needed

Progress Monitoring Overview
Progress Monitoring
STAR Enterprise software enables teachers to set intermediate goals for students for a specified intervention period To assist with this task STAR software records the important information about an intervention and helps you calculate goals for individual students based on their current reading or math status The software then plots a studentrsquos progress and projects whether or not he or she will meet the goal on the Progress Monitoring Report

4 Do the students in the intervention have similar needs5 Is there enough data available Have students been in the
intervention for long enough for a pattern to emerge
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented as
intended and with fidelity Are you seeing similar results with other students in
this intervention For what type of student is this intervention
successful How could this information help as you assign new students to interventions
For which students are you still looking for a successful intervention What common needs do those students have that can help shape your search
Is this intervention moving students toward benchmark at a fast enough rate
Can you apply whatrsquos working with other students Are there any students for whom you think it would
be beneficial to end change or increase or decrease the intensity of interventions
Considering Alternatives
Did all students in the group you are considering experience the intervention in the same way
Was STAR administered with fidelity
Do other progress monitoring assessments confirm or contradict the data from STAR
Develop a Plan of Action
Research alternative options for intervention
Make adjustments to existing intervention and monitor changes in student performance

State Performance Report compares student performance to state proficiency levels
If this rate of growth continues is this student likely to be above the proficiency threshold by the time of the state test
Are students currently above proficiency in danger of slipping below
Is state test proficiency a realistic goal for this student

1 Which students are below the pathway to proficiency
2 Since scoring above the pathway is not a definitive indicator of state test proficiency which students above the pathway to proficiency do you want to consider
3 For how many students is state proficiency a realistic expectation for this school year
Discuss Implications of Data Are there more students below state proficiency
than you have the resources to help How will you determine which students to help and what will you do for the others
How can student learning be accelerated before the state test
How much growth in student performance is realistic for students to make before the state test
Do you need to make immediate gain in the number of students meeting proficiency If so which students will you choose to focus on How will you enhance instruction for other students so they wonrsquot fall further behind
Considering AlternativesWas the test administered with
fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency

What decisions did you make or changes did you try this year that seem to have worked
What didnrsquot work What alternatives will you try next year
Did more students change categories from fall to winter or winter to spring Why do you think that is
Do students need more support after moving out of intervention to maintain their gains

State Performance Report compares student performance to state proficiency levels
If this rate of growth continues is this student likely to be above the proficiency threshold by the time of the state test
Are students currently above proficiency in danger of slipping below
Is state test proficiency a realistic goal for this student

1 Which students are below the pathway to proficiency
2 Since scoring above the pathway is not a definitive indicator of state test proficiency which students above the pathway to proficiency do you want to consider
3 For how many students is state proficiency a realistic expectation for this school year
Discuss Implications of Data Are there more students below state proficiency
than you have the resources to help How will you determine which students to help and what will you do for the others
How can student learning be accelerated before the state test
How much growth in student performance is realistic for students to make before the state test
Do you need to make immediate gain in the number of students meeting proficiency If so which students will you choose to focus on How will you enhance instruction for other students so they wonrsquot fall further behind
Considering AlternativesWas the test administered with
fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency
Test students three times to see a trend line in time to adjust instruction before the state test

Progress Monitoring Overview
Progress Monitoring
STAR Enterprise software enables teachers to set intermediate goals for students for a specified intervention period To assist with this task STAR software records the important information about an intervention and helps you calculate goals for individual students based on their current reading or math status The software then plots a studentrsquos progress and projects whether or not he or she will meet the goal on the Progress Monitoring Report
Progress Monitoring

1 How is this student responding to the intervention
2 If this studentrsquos rate of growth continues where will the student likely end up by the end of the intervention
3 How close is the student to meeting benchmark
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented
as intended and with fidelity Does the intervention need more time to work Has the student been successful enough for the
intervention to end and the student to return to core instruction Or what additional support or monitoring might be needed
Has the student made enough growth to try decreasing the intervention intensity to gauge if heshe is ready for the intervention to end
Do you think the student might benefit from increasing the intensity of the intervention to accelerate their progress

this intervention For what type of student is this intervention
successful How could this information help as you assign new students to interventions
For which students are you still looking for a successful intervention What common needs do those students have that can help shape your search
Is this intervention moving students toward benchmark at a fast enough rate
Can you apply whatrsquos working with other students Are there any students for whom you think it would
be beneficial to end change or increase or decrease the intensity of interventions

Progress Monitoring Overview
Progress Monitoring
STAR Enterprise software enables teachers to set intermediate goals for students for a specified intervention period To assist with this task STAR software records the important information about an intervention and helps you calculate goals for individual students based on their current reading or math status The software then plots a studentrsquos progress and projects whether or not he or she will meet the goal on the Progress Monitoring Report

Progress Monitoring Overview
Progress Monitoring
STAR Enterprise software enables teachers to set intermediate goals for students for a specified intervention period To assist with this task STAR software records the important information about an intervention and helps you calculate goals for individual students based on their current reading or math status The software then plots a studentrsquos progress and projects whether or not he or she will meet the goal on the Progress Monitoring Report

2 If this studentrsquos rate of growth continues where will the student likely end up by the end of the intervention
3 How close is the student to meeting benchmark
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented
as intended and with fidelity Does the intervention need more time to work Has the student been successful enough for the
intervention to end and the student to return to core instruction Or what additional support or monitoring might be needed
Has the student made enough growth to try decreasing the intervention intensity to gauge if heshe is ready for the intervention to end

1 Which students are below the pathway to proficiency
2 Since scoring above the pathway is not a definitive indicator of state test proficiency which students above the pathway to proficiency do you want to consider
3 For how many students is state proficiency a realistic expectation for this school year
Discuss Implications of Data Are there more students below state proficiency
than you have the resources to help How will you determine which students to help and what will you do for the others
How can student learning be accelerated before the state test
How much growth in student performance is realistic for students to make before the state test
Do you need to make immediate gain in the number of students meeting proficiency If so which students will you choose to focus on How will you enhance instruction for other students so they wonrsquot fall further behind
Considering AlternativesWas the test administered with
fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency

2 If this studentrsquos rate of growth continues where will the student likely end up by the end of the intervention
3 How close is the student to meeting benchmark
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented
as intended and with fidelity Does the intervention need more time to work Has the student been successful enough for the
intervention to end and the student to return to core instruction Or what additional support or monitoring might be needed
Has the student made enough growth to try decreasing the intervention intensity to gauge if heshe is ready for the intervention to end
Do you think the student might benefit from increasing the intensity of the intervention to accelerate their progress

3 How close is the student to meeting benchmark
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented
as intended and with fidelity Does the intervention need more time to work Has the student been successful enough for the
intervention to end and the student to return to core instruction Or what additional support or monitoring might be needed

3 How close is the student to meeting benchmark
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented
as intended and with fidelity Does the intervention need more time to work Has the student been successful enough for the
intervention to end and the student to return to core instruction Or what additional support or monitoring might be needed

Discuss Implications of Data How will you balance teaching your core curriculum
with teaching the skills identified as the ones students are ready to learn
How do you plan to remediate instruction for students with skills that have already been taught
How do you plan to enrich instruction for students who have already learned the skills yoursquore getting ready to teach
Do the flexible groups you created need to be adjusted
Is grouping appropriate for all students or are there some students you would want to consider individually
Are there related skills from different domains that could be combined for an integrated lesson
Considering Alternatives
Are there students with scores that are not representative of their abilities
Was the test administered with fidelity
Are there additional factors that may prevent students from learning the skills listed or working with the group in which theyrsquove been placed (eg behavioral issues students with disabilities
Develop a Plan of Action

Progress Monitoring Overview
Progress Monitoring
STAR Enterprise software enables teachers to set intermediate goals for students for a specified intervention period To assist with this task STAR software records the important information about an intervention and helps you calculate goals for individual students based on their current reading or math status The software then plots a studentrsquos progress and projects whether or not he or she will meet the goal on the Progress Monitoring Report
Progress Monitoring

3 How close is the student to meeting benchmark
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented
as intended and with fidelity Does the intervention need more time to work Has the student been successful enough for the
intervention to end and the student to return to core instruction Or what additional support or monitoring might be needed
Has the student made enough growth to try decreasing the intervention intensity to gauge if heshe is ready for the intervention to end

this intervention For what type of student is this intervention
successful How could this information help as you assign new students to interventions
For which students are you still looking for a successful intervention What common needs do those students have that can help shape your search
Is this intervention moving students toward benchmark at a fast enough rate
Can you apply whatrsquos working with other students Are there any students for whom you think it would
be beneficial to end change or increase or decrease the intensity of interventions

1 Which students are below the pathway to proficiency
2 Since scoring above the pathway is not a definitive indicator of state test proficiency which students above the pathway to proficiency do you want to consider
3 For how many students is state proficiency a realistic expectation for this school year
Discuss Implications of Data Are there more students below state proficiency
than you have the resources to help How will you determine which students to help and what will you do for the others
How can student learning be accelerated before the state test
How much growth in student performance is realistic for students to make before the state test
Do you need to make immediate gain in the number of students meeting proficiency If so which students will you choose to focus on How will you enhance instruction for other students so they wonrsquot fall further behind
Considering AlternativesWas the test administered with
fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency
Test students three times to see a trend line in time to adjust instruction before the state test

3 How close is the student to meeting benchmark
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented
as intended and with fidelity Does the intervention need more time to work Has the student been successful enough for the
intervention to end and the student to return to core instruction Or what additional support or monitoring might be needed

What is this picture telling youGather DataScreening Report with State Benchmarks note students below and just above state test proficiency State Performance Report ndashStudent trend line if available and if not the location of student scores in relation to the pathway to proficiency State Performance Report ndash Class useful if all students have tested in each date range displayed
1 Which students are below the pathway to proficiency
2 Since scoring above the pathway is not a definitive indicator of state test proficiency which students above the pathway to proficiency do you want to consider
3 For how many students is state proficiency a realistic expectation for this school year
Discuss Implications of Data Are there more students below state proficiency
than you have the resources to help How will you determine which students to help and what will you do for the others
How can student learning be accelerated before the state test
How much growth in student performance is realistic for students to make before the state test
Do you need to make immediate gain in the number of students meeting proficiency If so which students will you choose to focus on How will you enhance instruction for other students so they wonrsquot fall further behind
Considering AlternativesWas the test administered with
fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency
Test students three times to see a trend line in time to adjust instruction before the state test

What is this picture telling youGather DataStudent Progress Monitoring Report trend line compared to goal line (if available) Groups (set in STAR Screening Progress Monitoring and Intervention link set up for students in the same intervention Characteristics (set in RP ie ELL students etchellip)1 With which student characteristics do you want to consider
data2 How many students with the same characteristic or in the
same intervention have responded positively to the intervention
3 How many students with the same characteristic or in the same intervention have NOT responded positively to the intervention
4 Do the students in the intervention have similar needs5 Is there enough data available Have students been in the
intervention for long enough for a pattern to emerge
Discuss Implications of Data Is the intervention yoursquore using being implemented as
intended and with fidelity Are you seeing similar results with other students in
this intervention For what type of student is this intervention
successful How could this information help as you assign new students to interventions
For which students are you still looking for a successful intervention What common needs do those students have that can help shape your search
Is this intervention moving students toward benchmark at a fast enough rate
Can you apply whatrsquos working with other students Are there any students for whom you think it would
be beneficial to end change or increase or decrease the intensity of interventions
Considering Alternatives
Did all students in the group you are considering experience the intervention in the same way
Was STAR administered with fidelity
Do other progress monitoring assessments confirm or contradict the data from STAR
Develop a Plan of Action
Research alternative options for intervention
Make adjustments to existing intervention and monitor changes in student performance
Expand successful interventions to include additional students

Considering AlternativesWas the test administered with
fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency
Test students three times to see a trend line in time to adjust instruction before the state test

fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency
Test students three times to see a trend line in time to adjust instruction before the state test

than you have the resources to help How will you determine which students to help and what will you do for the others
How can student learning be accelerated before the state test
How much growth in student performance is realistic for students to make before the state test
Do you need to make immediate gain in the number of students meeting proficiency If so which students will you choose to focus on How will you enhance instruction for other students so they wonrsquot fall further behind
Considering AlternativesWas the test administered with
fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency
Test students three times to see a trend line in time to adjust instruction before the state test

Discuss Implications of Data Are the results what you expected What did you
or didnrsquot surprise you Looking at students who met criteria for success
to what instructional practices can you attribute their success
How will you challenge students who are showing low growth but high achievement
Do you see similarities in students who have made gains What about those who havenrsquot
How could you use this information to make placement and program decisions for next school year
How much will a summer break set back student performance How could you help students keep the gains theyrsquove made over the summer
Considering Alternatives
Were tests administered with fidelity
Is there other evidence that may confirm or contradict the findings here
Are your expectation for success reasonable realistic and fair
Develop a Plan of Action
Make placement and programming decisions for next school year and adjust after next yearrsquos fall screening as needed
Identify effective instructional practices and determine if they can be replicated or expanded to include more students
Evaluate ineffective instructional practices to determine why they were ineffective
Institute practices that are designed to help low-growth students show growth
Consider programs to help students maintain performance throughout the summer

State Performance Report compares student performance to state proficiency levels
If this rate of growth continues is this student likely to be above the proficiency threshold by the time of the state test
Are students currently above proficiency in danger of slipping below
Is state test proficiency a realistic goal for this student

3 For how many students is state proficiency a realistic expectation for this school year
Discuss Implications of Data Are there more students below state proficiency
than you have the resources to help How will you determine which students to help and what will you do for the others
How can student learning be accelerated before the state test
How much growth in student performance is realistic for students to make before the state test
Do you need to make immediate gain in the number of students meeting proficiency If so which students will you choose to focus on How will you enhance instruction for other students so they wonrsquot fall further behind

Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance

Discuss Implications of Data Are there more students below state proficiency
than you have the resources to help How will you determine which students to help and what will you do for the others
How can student learning be accelerated before the state test
How much growth in student performance is realistic for students to make before the state test
Do you need to make immediate gain in the number of students meeting proficiency If so which students will you choose to focus on How will you enhance instruction for other students so they wonrsquot fall further behind
Considering AlternativesWas the test administered with
fidelity
Did students take TAR with as much seriousness as they take the state test
Is your state test changing
If fewno students are below the pathway to proficiency what other benchmarks could be applied to help you categorize student performance
Develop a Plan of Action
Accelerate learning for students below or close to the pathway to proficiency
Test students three times to see a trend line in time to adjust instruction before the state test
