Learning Loss - Academic growth varies across the academic year and generally declines from the last day of school through the summer, with steeper declines in mathematics than in reading. - Preliminary COVID data estimates students will return in fall 2020 with roughly 30% of learning loss in reading relative to a typical school year. However, in mathematics, students are likely to show a 50% loss of learning.
Learning Loss - Reading
Learning Loss - Mathematics
Steps to Address Learning Loss - Utilize formative assessments to determine each student’s current instructional proficiency level - Determine growth rates needed to catch up and set learning goals for the year that are ambitious but attainable - Math subcommittees have created a plan that reviews essential standards that need to be reviewed from the previous year prior to moving into new content - Provide targeted differentiated instruction or opportunities for individualized learning
