DATA Talks & Forms | Data Meeting Forms, 54 Discussion Cards & SMART Goal Tickets for PLCs and MTSS

Description

Data meetings that lead somewhere

You’ve been there: the team gathers, the data goes up on the screen… and the conversation stalls. Or it ends without a clear next step.

DATA Talks & Forms gives every meeting a structure. Follow the 4-step data process, use a ready-made agenda, pull a discussion card to get the conversation going, and leave with a written goal and an action plan. Every time.

What’s inside

Plan the meeting

• The Data Process: 4 simple steps: collect, chart, analyze, implement

Dig into the data

• Reflect, Commit, Plan: turn findings into a goal and an action plan with names and dates
• Teacher Data Analysis: strengths, weaknesses and grouping decisions
• Classroom Data Analysis: list the skills below proficiency and the students who need each one
