DLI 2nd Grade Guide

GUIDELINES FOR USING # on the Report Card

• The only standards with a hashtag are those in which learning opportunities are modifed for a student. ✓ The standards should align with the student’s IEP • General Education and Special Education teachers must discuss the standards represented with the hashtag . • Student achievement towards standards marked a 3 - On Track at this Time or 3M -Mastered will not have a hashtag . Mastery of a standard is accomplished without curriculum modifcations.

• Teachers should meet with parents to explain the use of the hashtag to ensure information communicated to the parents.

✓ Explain the modifcation being made to the standard (i.e. different level of work, modifed curriculum, modifed standard). ✓ The Special Education Teacher should provide connections to the IEP progress report.
