[Octm] FW: Checkpoints for Success Project -- PD targeting 4th grade math and 8th grade science

[Weinand, Stacey]

Would you like to learn more about:
How to access items to create benchmark assessments to monitor student
progress?
What to do with the results of the benchmark assessments with your
faculty and students?

The Checkpoints project is developing a free bank of test items aligned
to PASS which can be used by districts to create benchmark tests in
mathematics and science. Participants will use assessment results as
they work together to modify instruction to maximize student success. We
have funding for approximately 40 Oklahoma Administrator/Teacher teams.
The project will consist of an informational videoconference for
administrators in November and intensive team training in February.

We hope you will be able to attend the informational videoconference to
learn more about the Checkpoints project.
