see their students be successful throughout the year and on year-end
assessments. In their success, we can celebrate that learning has occurred,
which is the ultimate goal in education! The
primary focus when it comes to the year-end assessment of our students in
Mississippi is the Mississippi Academic Assessment Program (MAAP). In
this workshop, participants will learn to access, understand, and interpret
available MAAP English and Language Arts resources. Instruction and
resources will be provided to help participants be able to better prepare their
students for answering closed-ended, open-ended, and performance task items by
developing, adjusting, and evaluating lessons, units, and assessments to be
comparable to MAAP testing. Participants will be given instruction on how
to locate and synthesize various text forms and genres and be provided with
multiple suggestions for differentiating instruction in the ELA classroom.
