8-Step ProcessThe Florida Continuous Improvement Model:Implementing the 8-Step Instructional Process forFlorida Physical Science with Earth ScienceThe Continuous Improvement Model provides a structure for improving studentachievement. Its implementation in the science classroom can improve studentmastery of the Sunshine State Standards and aid in student preparation for the FCAT.The backbone of the Continuous Improvement Model is the 8-Step Process:Disaggregate DataProvide Tutorials for NonMastery StudentsDevelop Timeline and InstructionalFocus CalendarProvide Enrichments forMastery StudentsDeliver Focused BenchmarkLessonsMonitor Instructional DeliveryAdminister Mini-Assessmentsof BenchmarksMaintain Efficacy of the ProcessThe cyclical Plan-Do-Check-Act nature of the 8-Step Process provides continuousfeedback and results data that can be used to determine the effectiveness of instruction and allow for modification as needed.Plan Disaggregate Data Develop CalendarDo Deliver Focused LessonsAct Provide tutorials Provide enrichmentCheck Assess Maintain MonitorThe following pages will describe how Florida Physical Science with Earth Sciencehelps you work through each step.FL4
8-Step ProcessDisaggregate DataAnalyze ResultsThe foundation of the Continuous Improvement Model is the determination ofstudent strengths and weaknesses at the beginning of the school year. With thisinformation, a plan will be formulated to address student needs.In addition to data provided by your district or the state, Florida Physical Sciencewith Earth Science offers these data collection tools:ExamView Pro Testmaker CD-ROM Contains editable pretests for each chapter Allows you to build Benchmark-specific tests Provides disaggregated data by student or Benchmarkwhen students test onlineSucceeding on the FCAT CD-ROM Allows students to practice by Benchmark Generates data reports by Benchmark for the classand for individual students Allows the teacher to set a mastery threshold Generates NCLB data and reportsMastering the FCAT Offers an additional pretest that can betaken with paper and pencil or edited andtaken online through ExamView Pro Contains a Student Tracking Chart torecord student progressFL5
8-Step ProcessDevelop Timeline andInstructional Focus CalendarMake a PlanOnce student needs are determined, it’s time to plan. Typically, a district or schooltime line will be developed based on this step. Once such an overall strategy is inplace, you can plan your focused lesson instruction.Pacing GuideThe Pacing Guide on pages FL29–FL41 is a sequence of single-session classes forteaching the Student Edition to cover all in-depth Benchmarks. This guide alsoincludes scheduling for block classes. Both schedules allow time for review andpractice.TeacherWorks CD-ROM Lists Benchmarks for each chapter and section Contains Interactive Teacher Edition Provides editable Florida Planning Guide for Continuous Improvement withBenchmark correlations and a list of all teaching resources. Pick and choosewhat you need when you need it. Each lesson is available for three ability levels—L1, L2, and L3.FL6
8-Step ProcessDeliver Focused Benchmarks LessonsTeach the LessonWith your teaching plan developed, you are ready to focus on lessons that arestructured around the Sunshine State Standards. Lessons should concentrate oncovering required Benchmarks, some FCAT focus, and meeting students’ needs.Interactive Chalkboard CD-ROM Includes editable Microsoft PowerPoint presentations for each section ofevery chapter Contains animations with audio Provides an extensive image bankFlorida Physical Science with Earth Science Student Edition Lists all Benchmarks covered within each chapter and section Provides correlations to Benchmarks for assessment questionsFlorida Physical Science with Earth Science Teacher Wraparound Edition Includes correlations to Sunshine State Standards, Mathematics Shows chapter components at a glance on the Chapter Organizer pages atthe beginning of each andardsNationalChapter OpenerState/LocalLabs/FeaturesLab MaterialsLaunch Lab: battery,flashlight bulb, insulatedwire, electrical tape orbattery holderChapter FAST FILE ResourcesFoldables Worksheet, p. 15Note-taking Worksheets,pp. 31–33Directed Reading Overview,p. 17MiniLAB: transparent tapeChapter FAST FILE ResourcesTransparency Activity, p. 42MiniLAB, p. 3Enrichment, p. 28Reinforcement, p. 25Directed Reading, p. 18See pp. 16T–17T for aKey to Standards.Section 1 Electric Charge2 sessions1 block1.

The Continuous Improvement Model provides a structure for improving student achievement. Its implementation in the science classroom can improve student mastery of the Sunshine State Standards and aid in student preparation for the FCAT. The backbone of the Continuous Improvement Model is the 8-Step Process: Disaggregate Data
