Math Performance Audit

10-minute daily "NBT Maintenance" to ensure current strength doesn't erode while targeting weaknesses.

"The data is the baseline, not the ceiling."

Teacher "Look-fors"

Evidence that the intervention is bridging the state gap:

NF Growth

Students can explain why 3/10 is 30/100 using a 10x10 grid model without prompted multiplication.

OA Growth

Students circle quantities and identify the "missing part" in a word problem before touching a pencil for calculation.

Data Goal

Targeting a 10% increase in NF proficiency scores by the end of Q3 through bi-weekly formative assessments.

Strategic Focus for Grade 3

01

NF Partitioning

Shift instruction from "counting parts" to "equal partition distance" on number lines. Focus on NF.A.3 equivalence through model stacking.

02

Attribute Awareness

Direct intervention on identifying right angles (3.G.A.1) using physical "square corners" and sorting polygons by number of right angles.

03

Leverage OA Strength

Use strong multiplication fluency (3.OA.C.7) to bridge area and volume measurement concepts where performance is fluctuating.

OA Integration

Use current OA fluency strength to introduce multi-step area and volume word problems (MD.A.2).

"Gains are measured by understanding, not just accuracy."

Success Metrics

Evidence of bridging the Grade 3 - State Gap:

NF Evidence

Students can partition a number line into any denominator (2, 3, 4, 6, 8) and explain that a fraction is a point on a scale.

GE Evidence

Students can distinguish between a rhombus and a square based specifically on the presence of right angles.

2026 Target

Goal: Increase Geometry category proficiency from 38% to 50% through direct square-corner intervention.

Strategic PD

Allocate Q1 PD days to "Vertical NF Alignment." Teachers in G3-4 must use consistent visual anchors (Number Lines and 10x10 Area Models) to ensure vocabulary and conceptual models are shared across the transition.

Resource Allocation

Redirect math intervention resources toward NF standards starting in Week 4. Existing NBT strengths can be maintained through low-cost spiraled review, allowing for high-intensity conceptual coaching in Fractions.

Strategic Focus for ELA

01

Evidence-Based Writing

Address the writing gap by shifting from single-sentence responses to structured "paragraph sandwiches" that integrate evidence and analysis.

02

Figurative Mastery

Integrate daily "language mini-lessons" focusing specifically on identifying metaphors, similes, and personification in complex texts.

03

Author's Craft Analysis

Move beyond literal meaning to analyzing *how* and *why* an author makes specific points (4.R.PK-12.8).

Report generated based on IT301 MCAS ELA Item Analysis Summary Data (Donald P Timony Grammar #01810060)

Analytic Language

Explicit weekly focus on figurative language types and author's craft (R.PK-12.8).

Complex Text

Increasing text complexity in Q3 to challenge strong literal comprehenders with abstract themes.

"Literal comprehension is the foundation; analysis is the goal."
