Focus Students
Directions: Identify three focus students for your inquiry. Identify special characteristics of the students and include performance data. Explain why you have selected them for this inquiry focus.
Do not use actual names of students. (Note: At least one focus student should be an English learner and at least one must have an ILP/504 accommodation. The third is your choice, but please
identify someone that poses an instructional challenge.) Identify expected results for each focus student.

Post-assessment analysis will include an analysis of the students’ formal written responses to the Essential Question (EQ) for the lesson, drawing upon primary
and secondary source materials. I will grade these based upon a rubric, then discuss the results/feedback with the students.
Analysis will be focused on how well students were able to address the EQ in their formal paragraphs, using source evidence to ground their claim.

Incorporate more source analysis into everyday activities.
For classroom practice Students enjoyed this activity; they especially liked the pairing of either primary or secondary text with images. They noted this helped them visualize the
information/content in a more meaningful manner. I will focus on incorporating graph(s) analysis into classroom activities, so that students can gain more
