 I am on my district's literacy Taskforce. We are starting the task of
 creating descriptors for each grade level for the implementation of Common
 Core next year. This will include sight words students should know,(which I
 am not keen on), what Fountas  Pinnell Benchmark level students should be
 at, and exactly what a student should be able to do and use as far as
 reading strategies. It must meet all Common Core Standards. We are a
 district really pushing everything Fountas  Pinnell also, so we have their
 LLI program and are starting to implement the Benchmark Assessment.  We are
 going to use the Fountas and Pinnell Continuum Of Literacy to help us do
 this. I was wondering anyone out has put together this type of document in
 their district yet and what it looked like.  I would love an example to
 look at. We are setting lofty standards. Here are our Independent Level
 Goals for next year for the end of the year using F  P Benchmark.
 K= Level D
 1st= Level J
 2nd= Level N
 3rd= R
 4th =U
 5th= X

Students who are two or more levels behind the monthly target are the students 
who we focus on for extra intervention.  This could be in the form of after 
school tutoring, extra small group instruction with the teacher or a reading

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core and F P

2011-11-01 Thread Renee

April,

I am curious as to whether the teachers in your school/district are 
speaking out against this plan? It seems to have very little 
recognition of the fact that children learn at different rates, and 
that some take longer to get something than other. Two months behind? 
Wow. That seems very nit-picky and also very arbitrary.


Are there others out there who are assessing/judging children in this 
way?

Renee

PLEASE, when you have a request like this for an individual, do NOT hit reply 
so that everyone must read it!! For this kind of request, please change the 
address to the individual you are asking for information from. 
The reason this is a problem is that high volumes of email (like when we get a 
million me too or send me this too ) causes many servers to identify this 
listserv as junk mail. AND many people on this list then no longer get their 
listserve email.  

This is really important and it impacts many, many people beyond this immediate

We have quarterly benchmarks but the child is not targeted for formal 
intervention unless they are more than a year behind. I do think the 
cutsoffs mentioned earlier are lofty. Our district suggests that kids 
be at a V by the end of 5th grade.

Yeswe have a range of expectations.  If a child is not progressing within 
the core curriculum we provide targeted intervention in the areas they are not 
demonstrating growth.  
How would you determine who receives intervention and in which areas the 
student would benefit from intervention without targets and expectations?  I do 
not think this is nit-picky, I think it is responsible teaching that helps all 
children become readers.

Two months can be interpreted usually as 2 levels behind. That's standard 
RTI practice for Tier 3 interventions.


These monthly guidelines are found here:
http://www.heinemann.com/fountasandpinnell/supportingMaterials/bas/ProgressMonitoring.pdf

Something else to remember is that FP's benchmark goals are Instructional, 
not Independent.

Students who are two or more levels behind the monthly target are the students 
who we focus on for extra intervention.  This could be in the form of after 
school tutoring, extra small group instruction with the teacher or a reading 
specialist.

  I am on my district's literacy Taskforce. We are starting the task of
  creating descriptors for each grade level for the implementation of
  Common Core next year. This will include sight words students should
  know, (which I am not keen on), what Fountas  Pinnell Benchmark
  level
  students should be at, and exactly what a student should be able to
  do
  and use as far as reading strategies. It must meet all Common Core
  Standards. We are a district really pushing everything Fountas 
  Pinnell also, so we have their
  LLI program and are starting to implement the Benchmark Assessment.
  We are
  going to use the Fountas and Pinnell Continuum Of Literacy to help us
  do this. I was wondering anyone out has put together this type of
  document in their district yet and what it looked like.  I would love
  an example to look at. We are setting lofty standards. Here are our
  Independent Level Goals for next year for the end of the year using F
   P Benchmark.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core and F P

2011-11-01 Thread jayhawkrtroy fredde
Does anyone have a document there district uses that has matched together
Common Core Sttandards and the Fountas  Pinnell Continuum of Literacy
guide. I have a document on the Heinemen website that FP put out that
shows how Common Core can be linked to their Continuum. This was very
helpful and I will use this, but was hoping to see what some districts have
already done. Please share if you have something. April thanks for sharing
your month by month levels.

 We are also very much a Fountas/Pinnell district and have been for many
 years. We have already begun to use the Common Core. I feel I can share
 many different thoughts which may be too lengthy for this list serve. You
 are certainly welcome to contact me personally. However, I will say that
 the listed independent benchmark levles seem very high.
