As summer approaches most of us have our thoughts on warm temperatures, days at the beach, and time with family and friends. During the summer vacation it is also natural for educators to reflect on last year and think ahead to the next school year. As you are thinking about the start of school next year, we encourage you to strategize about ways in which you can strengthen the implementation of OGAP.
OGAP was designed to support systemic use of formative assessment in this way using OGAP items, OGAP learning progressions, and the
OGAP mindset of continuous and intentional use of evidence of student thinking for planning and instructional decision-making.
We know from our work with thousands of teachers that OGAP implementation strengthens through experience. You will be more familiar with the item bank and with analyzing and making instructional decisions based on the evidence in relationship to the OGAP framework. However, it means that it is important to think and plan now for next fall.
