AIMSWEB OVERVIEW

K–W–L CHART

Welcome!Let’s begin with a few questions…

• What do I know about aimsweb?• What do I want to know about aimsweb?

Please complete the first two columns of the K-W-L chart with the other members in your group.

AIMSWEB TRAINING

• #1: Overview for all teachers and faculties on aimsweb components. (this one!)

• #2: Training for Benchmark Assessment Team. Each school will determine their own assessment team.

• #3: aimsweb Progress Monitoring training for all classroom teachers.

ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS (EQ)

1. What is aimsweb?

2. How does aimsweb fit into the RTII model?

3. What measures are used in aimsweb to assess reading, writing, and math skills ?

EQ: What is aimsweb?

Curriculum Based Measures (CBM) as General Indicators

A general indicator is a standardized assessment conducted routinely over time. Like getting a ‘check up’ at the doctor.

What happens every time you go to the doctor?

• Height

• Weight

• Blood pressure

• Pulse

• Temperature

CBMs Assess the Foundation!

Basic Skills

Content mastered at primary

Content mastered at secondary

Example:

Algebraic equations

Order of Operations

Adding/ subtracting/ multiplication/division

Why is screening with CBM so critical?

• When basic skills are weak, we cannot support the processing load of more complicated concepts

• The likelihood of failure increases as frustration limits the student’s ability to progress

Progress Monitoring

EQ: How does aimsweb fit into the RtII model?

Two components of aimsweb

Fall Universal Screening

Benchmarking & Progress Monitoring

When used together, provide a complete picture of student growth

Benchmark Screening

Progress Monitoring+

Benchmark Screening

•Three times per year (fall, winter, spring) •ALWAYS on grade level •ALL students are assessed•Specific measures are used at each grade level•K-12 National Norms available•Helps monitor the efficacy of our instructional programs

Benchmark Screening

Progress Monitoring

Progress Monitoring

•Occurs as often as weekly•On or off grade level •Can monitor any skill at any grade level•Has the ability to show interventions and goal changes•Allows educators to track students’ response to instruction/intervention
