 * Reviewing math assessment on this weeks intervention. Hayes and Willis and Auers have 1/2 students that passed and 1/2 that did not pass. Runnels subtraction 1/2 passed and 1/2 that did not pass. Ledezma taught money and the students performed better when they touched the money verses the other half who performed well without using the coins on the mini assessment. Gaston/Sanchez has problems with students reading the problems verses doing the actualmath portion of the assessment. Venegas 6/16 did not pass the assessment of subtraction. Idea from Mrs. Mustin try to do CScope lesson in the 50 minutes and if possible do individual math stations to help those students who need extra help in certain math areas. The English group has 4 reading groups and the Bilingual group has 3 reading groups and 1 math group.**

Discussed math cba scores and which areas we need to target. Looked at 2.1 C-use place value to compare and order whole numbers to 999 and record the comparisons using numbers and symbols (<, =, >). Discussed subtraction problems. Discussed what problems you see in your daily lessons that the students need practice on. We saw students not being able to compare numbers up to the hundreds place value. Place Value and ordering numbers-2 weeks Hayes and Willis will teach Subtraction-2 weeks Runnels and Sanchez Counting Coins-2 weeks Gaston

Coins-Ledezma Place Value-Venegas Last group will be decided after data is viewed.

Mini assessments will be discussed next Friday. Everyone can bring their information and ideas for that. Teacher observations will also be discussed. Using white boards and check marks can be used instead of always paper and pencil.

Job changes take place next week.

Reviewed mini assessments given Thursday. Runnels did beginning rhymes, and stated they got that pretty easily. Gaston did ending sounds and saw growth. Everyone passed. Not sure how Ms. Sanchez's group did. Ledezma did high frequency words and phrases from TEJAS LE. She timed them and they were excited to see how well they were doing. Venegas did blends, and some saw growth but some still need work. Auers did comprehension, and they did well. Students were excited. She used Reader's Theater and said they were very engaged. Hayes did character analysis. Students created a Venn Diagram and compared the cousins in the story the Twin Club. Willis also did character analysis. Students did well on the Venn Diagram, but students struggled some with the story pyramid. They understood setting, but limiting the amount of words they could use to describe the events, etc they had difficulty.
 * __October 15, 2010 PLC Meeting Minutes:__**

Discussed math CBA scores. Auers is concerned that her low scores could be from improper bubbling. She is going to score them by hand and compare to scantrons. Willis feels her kids did a fabulous job. They underlined and circled numbers like she taught them to. Told them they had to show work and they did. Hayes feels her students did well. She is very proud of them!

How will we group our students? Venegas moved some students up into Ledezma's group. Willis moved a student up to Hayes' group. Discussed if anyone else needed students moved around.

Who will teach which skills? Willis and Hayes are doing cause and effect. We will look into the Reader's Theater for cause and effect. Runnels is doing ending rhymes. Gaston is doing blends. Venegas is continuing with blends. Auers will do summary using beginning, middle, and end. Ledezma will do fluency, moving to high frequency phrases.

We will do this skill for one more week, and then discuss moving into math interventions the week of October 25.

How will we know they got it? Ledezma-mini assessment Monday with high frequency phrases, and Thursday having them read a passage and time them on it. Everyone else is doing a mini assessment Thursday.

Reviewed TPRI data for each teacher. Group A least independent and Group D are the most independent students. Groups B and C fit inbetween accordingly. Pink recommends whole group instruction. CSCOPE has to continue as planned per Mustin but as for TPRI recommendations for wholel group instruction, teachers must tend to the interventions during intervention time. CSCOPE will eventually cover what TPRI recommends for whole group instruction, Mustin claims, but again for now, do not take classroom time away from CSCOPE to tend to the TPRI whole group intervention as recommended in the summary data sheet.
 * __October 8, 2010 PLC Meeting Minutes:__**

Also mentioned was to immediately have the students in frustrational in intervention groups. Overall, second grade teachers are not surprised by the data, since AIMSWEB has already identified our at risk students. The results are typical of beginning of the year.

For next week, we decided to wait to set up math intervention groups until after the first Math CBA exam next Wednesday.

Most of us are in agreement to change their intervetion with the current intervention groups they have. Hayes will teach characterization. Runnels wants to work on letter substitutions from the TPRI intervention guide. No letter identification, instead Gaston and Sanchez will work with final consonent sounds from the TPRI intervention guide. Willis will work with comparison traits and reflections.

Based on the TPRI data, BIED classes will have a graphophonemic awareness group. Students that scored 10 or below in section 1 will be in this group. The second group will be fluency and two groups of comprension. Based on the TPRI intervention guide, Venegas will work with the graphophonemic awareness group with blends, Ledezma will teach fluency with high frequency words and phrases and Auers and Matamoros will work with comprehension with. Venegas will have about 12 students and the others groups will be determined after further breakdown of the TPRI data BOY results.

We will look to work with the new groups for two weeks beginning the coming Monday, October 11. Will have a mini assessment on Thursday.

 * PLC Roles for next week:**

Discussed moving students up for next week. Discuss mini-assessment results (Popcorn story) for main idea. Gaston having issue with her group still not understanding what the beginning sound is, because they are still circling the ending sounds. Runnels had her mini-assessment with beginning sounds and continues to see confusion with the blends and digraphs. Circle blends in the words activity followed. Ledezma's group worked with chunking syllables and forming new words. Also worked with /bl/ blends in her work. Venegas did an informal assessment with main idea and noticed most students still are having trouble identifying the main idea. Consensus is that second grade would like to continue for another week with the same groups. Exception is Gaston wanting to work with beginning, middle and end. Discussion followed on how to use the foldable for the BME. Runnels reiterated that BME is similar to summarizing, just broken down to three smaller parts.
 * __October 1, 2010 PLC Meeting Minutes:__**

Brought up TPRI tiering system and if relevant to the RTI intervention tiering system. Mustin said that it is similar but not the same.

Discuss how to assess and will assess again next Thursday. Runnels mentioned to assess whole group, partnered and individually. Mentioned teaching good reading strategies, liken to PLORE which was used years ago.

Began disussion on math observations. Doubles and near doubles was an issue for Auers. Hayes has children not identifying monetary value between a half dollar and a quarter dollar. Willis has children not reading the numbers correctly. Willis mentioned using the "hairs" on the coins to help count on with money.

For next week: Hayes/Willis will work on summarizing/main idea Gaston will work on beginning sounds Runnels will work on blends Auers will work on fluency Ledezma will work on syllables Venegas will work on maid idea and summarizing

FYI: Math CBA #1 on October 12. Bring TPRI data Summary assessment data for the higher groups Discuss what we will do for the following week
