Lexia Reading Core5 Diving Deeper into your Data

Goals • Review the Core5 Integrated Model• Focus on the Data and Reports in myLexia

– At the Class Level– At the Student Level

• Review which reports work best in typical situations in school– Parent Conferences– Student Data Meetings (RTI, IEPs, etc.)– Grade Level Data Discussions– Planning Small Group Instruction

Teachers change lives.

Core5 Integrated Model

• Real-time, norm-referenced performance data

• Ongoing progress monitoring without a test event:– Predict future performance and Prescribe

Instructional Intensity– Monitoring of performance toward meeting Common

Core State Standards– Saves teachers up to a month of instruction time across

the year• Assessment data is highly predictive of outcomes on commonly used assessments such as:

– DIBELS® – MAPS®– AIMSweb® – GRADE®

Assessment Without Testing®

Goal of Assessment

“The goal is to gain enough information about student progress to make effective decisions while minimizing the time spent administering assessments.”

Torgesen, 2006

Four Types of Assessments

(Universal) Screening

Progress Monitoring

Diagnostic Outcome

Progress Monitoring

Performance Predictors: Risk Levels

• Indicates each student’s percent chance of reaching the end-of-year benchmark for his or her grade level

Rosie has a 27% chance of reaching end-of-year benchmark

Juan has a 35% chance of reaching end-of-year benchmark

Max has a 62% chance of reaching end-of-year benchmark

Lily has a 84% chance of reaching end-of-year benchmark

Innovations in Assessment

Performance Predictors

(PK-5)

Prescription of Intensity

(PK-5)

Prescription of Intensity

1. The number of minutes the student should use the software

2. The targeted, teacher-led instructional materials to be used for that student

3. The frequent analysis of student data

Performance Predictors: Zones of Intensity

• Indicates each student’s percent chance of reaching the end-of-year benchmark for his or her grade level

Rosie has a 27% chance of reaching end-of-year benchmark

Juan has a 35% chance of reaching end-of-year benchmark

Max has a 62% chance of reaching end-of-year benchmark

Lily has a 84% chance of reaching end-of-year benchmark

Instructional Intensity Ranges (Minutes/Week)

Pre-K (min/wk)

K – 2nd

(min/wk)3rd – 5th

(min/wk)1% - 30% 20 80 100

31% - 50% 20 60 7051% - 79% 15 40 4080% - 99% 15 20 20

* Students who have already reached grade level benchmark will have a predictor of 100% and an Instructional Intensity of n/a. This does not mean they cannot still continue to use Core5, but if resources are limited, other students should be given priority.

THE POWER OF THE PRESCRIPTION:

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEETING RECOMMENDED USAGE AND

NOT MEETING USAGE?

A system that works when used with Fidelity!

2013 National analysis of 45,000 high-risk students using Lexia Reading in a geographically and

ethnically representative sample

Monthly and Daily Progress Monitoring Data• Monthly

– Performance Predictors– Prescription of Intensity

• Daily– Accuracy– Rate– Units Gained/Units to Target– Grade Level of Material (GLM)– Struggling Indicator– Usage

• Actual Usage (Avg. Minutes/Week on Computer)

REPORTS FOR TEACHERS:

SEEING THE PROGRESS & MONITORING IMPLEMENTATION

Key reports for Teachers at the Class Level

1. Class Home Page/Combined Report– Plan small group instruction– Allocate resources (computer, teacher)– Monitor Usage– Prioritize by risk– Celebrate Success

2. Class Skills Report– Monitor grade level of material– Units Gained/Units to Target – great for RTI

3. Class Usage Report– Select Custom Date Range– See Units Gained for specific date ranges

Data – Simple and Actionable Plan Instruction list groups students with similar needs to help plan small group instruction

Color-coded icons and order of list help teachers prioritize students

Lesson icons link directly to the lessons those students need

students started

2.Where they need to go

3.How much they need to do to get there

4.What % of your class is working Below, On, or Above Grade Level

Class Usage from the link on Class Home Page

Class Usage from Reports Tab – This School Year

Key reports for Teachers at the Student Level

1. Student Combined Report– Data meetings

2. Student Skills Report– Monitor progress on CCSS– 5 Finger Rule if you are questioning placement:

• Look at Accuracy/Rate, if all 5 are High/Fast then maybe you can move them ahead a level

– Parent Conference – includes text3. Student Progress Report

– Parent Conference – no text, just line graphs

Action Plan to Differentiate for Each Student

Notification of achievement certificates available

Number of minutes needed

Detailed information on the skills with which the student is struggling – link to lesson

Links to independent practice material for skills mastered

Real-time progress monitoring on specific skills

Common Core Standards – Progress and Accuracy

• Four strands from ELA standards

– Sub-strands in Foundational Reading

• Only relevant strands for grade level display

• Accuracy• Progress through units

Student Progress Report

Reports Tab• If you ever forget the short cuts or links of how to get to a

certain report – use the reports tab! Go left to right and don’t forget to hit Go!

• Remember: Your homepage is also called a Combined Report

LET’S EXPLORE YOUR DATA!!

Scavenger Hunt through your own Data: Home Page

• Can you identify 2 or 3 students who have the same skill deficit?

• What percent of your students are meeting their Recommended Usage? (Hint: Look under your usage graph on your home page)

• What percent of your class is “High Risk?”

• How many students need to increase their usage? Any of them need more than 30 minutes?

• Who just leveled up Today or This Week and has a certificate available?

Scavenger Hunt through your own Data: Student Combined Report & Teacher Resources

• Find one of your student’s combined reports– What lesson (s) does the student need?– What level is he/she currently working on?– What is the percentage of completion through each

activity?– What overall progress has your student made through

his/her grade CCSS?

• Where can you find the Teacher’s Guide?• Where is the Core5 Training Guide?• What report can be used as a parent report that includes text

to explain Core5?

CONCLUDING THOUGHTS

Which reports are best suited for these situations?

• Parent Conferences– Student Skills Report– Student Progress Report (if limited English or reading

proficiency)• Student Data Meetings (RTI, IEPs, etc.)

– Student Combined– Student Skills

• Grade Level Data Discussions– Class Skills Report– Class Home Page

• Planning Small Group Instruction– Class Home Page
