Presented by April Connley, INcompassing Education
Are you fully aware of how the ILEARN Assessment will be changing for the 2024-25 school year pilot program and fully in 2025-2026 school year? Do you struggle to find all the resources required to completely understand the 2023 Indiana Academic Standards for ELA?
Join April Connelley for ELA, to get one simple easy-to-use spreadsheet that will include all the resources you need for your specific 2023 Indiana Academic Standards and learn how they will be assessed on the new ILEARN Assessment. Learn exactly when each standard will be assessed on the ILEARN CheckPoint Assessments and which standards will be on the summative ILEARN Assessment. You will also learn how to use your classroom instruction to maximize students’ achievement on the new ILEARN CheckPoints and Summative Assessment. You will be provided with resources that show the types of questions used on the ILEARN Assessments as well as best practices that you can use to increase student performance for those questions. You will receive many valuable resources, activities, and ideas for increasing student performance and they will be modeled for you throughout the professional development.
