Analyzing Data

This section is dedicated to analyzing data, but it should be noted that analyzing shouldn't be done entirely alone. Often analyzing and presenting data happen simultaneously.

Tutorial Videos

These videos explain how I analyze data for math or Language Arts. I also touch on how to decide what to teach after you analyze the data.

Education can be viewed as a continuous cycle of analyzing data. Data is only valuable if an educator uses the data to inform their instruction for the whole class, small groups, or individual.

This is another great look at how to use data to inform instruction. This shows how much analyzing occurs in the cycle.

Reading Strategies Book

By: Jennifer Serravallo

This is a great book to analyze student reading responses. It is organized by skill, and each section starts out at a lower level and then moves up for more difficulty. I listen to student responses and decide if they need a strategy to fill in a gap or to to extend their thinking.

Writing Strategies Book

By: Jennifer Serravallo

This a great resource to analyze student's writing. It is also organized by skill and leveled. So if you start at the beginning of a skill section it has strategies for lower levels and then moves up through the section.

Making Number Talks Matter

By: Cathy Humphreys & Ruth Parker

This book shows you different strategies for different math operations and even fractions. You can analyze what a student already uses and what strategies might benefit the student to learn.

Lucy Calkins Units of Study Reading & Writing

By: Lucy Calkins and the Teacher's College

This series has instruction, but also has 2 components that will help analyze data. The If, Then Curriculum book has If a student does _________________, Then the teacher does _____________________________. It is a great tool to fill in specific needs. There is also a Learning Progression book that shows grade levels of a skill, so a teacher can see grade levels below and above. This will help fill needs and extend learning based on where the student is currently.

Literacy Continuum

By: Fountas & Pinnell

This book has skills for every Fountas & Pinnell reading level. This helps to analyze the gaps a student has based on their reading level. You can also move up or down a level to strengthen or extend learning.
