This data analyzes students in a 4^th grade weather unit. These represent grades before the unit test. My job is to help students get ready for the final assessment which will be a choice product. All students are in a gifted class. I color coded the data.

Blue: 90 and above

Green: 80s

Yellow: 70s

Red: Below 70

I first looked at overall performance. I noticed that most students are doing well but not exceptional.  The first two assignments had the lowest average. The reason may be they were just getting used to assessments, but the assessments should be looked at to determine if they need revision.

Grace is doing very poorly and needs remediation. I would offer her some time to chat or video conference with me one on one. In addition, I would talk to her parents to see if we could get her some tutorials. I may relook at her learning style to see if I am personalizing her instruction to meet her needs.

 In addition, Romir is missing two assignments so that needs to be addressed. I need to send his parents an email to address this issue.   

Mayssam is exceeding on all the assignments, so she may need some enrichment. I need to pre-assess her on the next standard and see if she needs to move ahead.

When grouping students, I would put Akhil and Grace in a small group, so I can give them more individual time, and perhaps scaffold the assignment.

Since the majority of students are scoring in Bs, I would have them do some goal setting and co-planning of learning to move them to the next level. In addition, I would offer them more choice in how they demonstrate learning.
