Continue to focus on reading efforts in order to make typical or above typical growth on Pathways to Progress for reading and growth in Lexile scores. Strategies for improvement are to implement high leverage reading practices (reading connected text, vocabulary routine, and writing 3-5). Implement cooperative structures, structured classroom discussion, close reading, intentional planning, skill based instruction, intensified routines, and foundational skills.

By May 2024, 70% of all students in Kindergarten - 5th grades will show typical or above typical growth from fall to spring as measured by Acadience Reading Pathways of Progress(K-3) or the Reading Inventory expected growth(4-5) reports.

Overarching Plan:
1. Continue implementing scaffolding and close read routines.
2. Continue to develop teachers’ skill based instruction.
3. Continue to develop teachers' Tier I instruction(95% Core and Wonders).
4. Continue to develop formative assessments for reading.

How we will implement the overarching plan:
1. Maintain our two curriculum interventionists to provide Tier II interventions. ($42,000 from TSSA)

2. Curriculum interventionists will be supervised and trained by the Instructional Coach on strategies and techniques for successful implementation of district approved Response to Interventions (RtI) curriculum and other supplemental programs.

3. Canyons School District will be providing additional funding to licensed teachers to conduct home visits with students and their families. Additional funding will be provided to other staff members that can not be paid through Federal Programs. ($900 from TSSA)

4. Teachers will use collaboration time to review student data, identify student needs and plan appropriate RtI instruction. Teacher professional development may also be provided during collaboration time if needed.

5. The instructional coach and principal will plan and coordinate PD off contract time. ($300 from TSSA)

6. BLT will be provided 2 half days to review school data to better help guide the goals and instruction at East Sandy Elementary. ($1,200 from LandTrust)

7. Grade level teams will be provided substitutes so teachers can deepen their understanding of the Tier I curriculum. ($10,450 from LandTrust)

8. Purchase general materials and supplies to support instruction related to school literacy goal. ($2,743 from TSSA)

9. Two Multi-Tier Systems of Support (MTSS) interventionists will maintain behavioral support with students receiving tier II intervention daily. MTSS interventionists will work closely with classroom teachers to align support as needed with academics and attendance. ($7,000 from TSSA)

High Quality Implementation Assessments

Teachers will instruct the students who are at greatest risk of not making benchmark during small group instruction. They will use the data collected from the benchmark and progress monitoring to adjust their instruction by regrouping for small group instruction. They will analyze Common Formative Assessments (CFA's) given during small group instruction daily, and during core instruction at least weekly, and maximize English Language Arts instructional minutes on the master schedule. Progress will be monitored during weekly IPLC meetings with teachers and observations by peers, coach and principal.

Teachers will receive professional development on our focus Instructional priorities: Close Reading, LETRS, Morning Meetings, and Tier I instruction through Wonders and 95%. Teachers will regularly plan and deliver lessons using sentence frames, teacher clarity, and explicit instruction which will allow for more oral language production. Students will have additional opportunities for language production during Morning Circle components. ALS staff will support language development in a small group setting. Classroom teachers' will review progress monitoring in professional learning communities. Instructional plans will be created based on progress monitoring data.

Continue efforts toward solid core math instruction by improving scores on Acadience mathematics measures in all grades. Strategies for improvement are implementing high leverage mathematical practices (number talks, increase mathematical language and discourse through close reading and systematic vocabulary, concrete-representational-abstract model) and implementing a focus on intentional planning for whole and small group instruction.

By May 2024, 70% of all students in Kindergarten - 5th grades will show typical or above typical progress from fall to spring as measured by Acadience Math Pathways of Progress.

Overarching Plan:
1. Continue implementing scaffolding and close read routines in math.
2. Continue to develop teachers' Tier I instruction(Number Talks, BFF Kits and Envision Math)

How we will implement the overarching plan:
1. Purchase licenses for Dreambox for k-5 to strengthen math differentiation. ($4,400 from TSSA)

2. Hold monthly Math PDs and purchase materials for teachers to learn and strengthen their math instruction and RtI supports. ($3,100 from TSSA)

3. Purchase general materials and supplies to support instruction related to school math goal. ($2,743 from TSSA)
