Student work

Background

The 6:1:1 class consists of 5 boys and 1 girl. All students in the class have an IEP and receive multiple services throughout the day. The class varies in academic ability in the sense that one student particularly does not know letters or numbers and cannot write, where other students can read and write on a 1st or 2nd grade level. One student is partially deaf and has hearing aids as well as receives the service of hearing to help during certain activities and any formal assessment.

Student Data

**The graph is by student and what grade they received on the pre-test compared to the grade on their post-test.**

Classification of student work from the summative assessment (see Appendix):

Summative Assessment Analysis
Level	Number of Students
Distinguished	2
Proficient	2
Developing	2

• Distinguished Students –  Rubric score of 15-16
• Proficient Students –  Rubric score of 13-14
• Developing Students – Rubric score of 12 or below

 

Analysis of Data:

• All students improved between the pre and post-test scores, except for one student who received 5 out of 5 on both tests.
• Average rubric score from the summative assessment = 12/16

Threats to Validity:

One possible threat to validity was history, because all students are constantly pulled out for services such as OT, PT which resulted in students missing parts or whole lessons. Students 5 and 6 were pulled out the most.
A second threat to validity was diffusion of treatment, because students interacted with each other and with aides or teachers when the work was independent.
