Student Survey this week


As mentioned in the blog last week, the Student Engagement survey for Grades 3-5  is open and available on StudentVue.  
In the past, we were able to conduct this survey in the Tech. lab with Mr. McAllister.  This year, all 3-5 teachers will need to conduct the survey.  This survey is a chance for our students to have a voice.  Your Marshall Leadership Team uses this data to steer our school improvement plan. 
1) Please communicate to students the purpose of the survey "is to understand how students feel about their experiences at school".  
2) Please make sure all student select Marshall as their school (we had problems district-wide with this last year and it can really mess up our results).
3) To access the student surveys:
~Have students log into StudentVue as if they were taking a district assessment.
~Click on the "Assessments" tab.  
The student survey is listed as a test and looks like the screenshot below.  Students have access to take the survey at any time this week.  Remember, even though it is a "test" in Synergy, students will not see the results of the test or survey.  It is not critical for students to "Submit" the test where they find the survey link, but they do need to complete all the questions on the survey.


FUSD plans to close these surveys on February 28.  Please let me know when the survey is completed with your class.  THANK YOU!!!

ELL ELEMENT
Strategy # 7. USE SENTENCE FRAMES TO GIVE STUDENTS PRACTICE WITH ACADEMIC LANGUAGE.All students, not just English language learners, need practice with academic conversations. Sentence frames – partially completed sentences like “I disagree with what _________ said because…” – show students how to structure language in a formal way. Keep these posted in a highly visible spot in your classroom and require students to refer to them during discussions and while they write.
For this kind of language to really sink in, though, Kim says it has to become a regular part of class. “They won’t do it if it’s not the norm in the class, because they’ll be embarrassed to use it among their peers,” she says. “But if they can put it off on the teacher and say, Oh, well, you know, Miss Kim makes me talk like this, then they don’t look as hoity-toity as they would otherwise.”
