 * __Creating easyCBM sub-groups for non-homeroom teachers (TLC/SPED/Title/facilitating)__**

In easyCBM… Go to **students tab** Go to **teacher /student set up** Click on **your teacher name** Click on a **grade level** Click on **student names** you want to be able to group/monitor Go to the **next grade level and repeat** as needed until you have all students in the building you need to monitor

Go back to My Students and all students you clicked on should appear Now you can **create sub groups** as desired (Add group)

=//**WORK SAMPLES**//= //__**WORK SAMPLES**____:__// For grades 3-5, work samples must be scored and entered into eSIS no later than your last day of work, before breaking for summer. The following work samples are required:
 * Writing at grades 3,4,5
 * Speaking at grades 3,4,5
 * Math problem solving grades 3,4,5
 * Scientific Inquiry grades 3,4,5

There is release time for teachers (1 full day or 2 half days) to score samples and enter them into eSIS. There is no longer a rule about storing work samples as long as they are recorded electronically. You can access the sub time through Aesop in the drop down: worksample elem. This is the first year that we are following the expectations for Scientific Inquiry. It was required last year, but Jim Conaghan obtained a waiver for the district for one year. Angie Ruzicka has been offering training on scoring of the Scientific Inquiry samples.

At this time, work samples do not need to be entered into Synergy, but work samples do still need to be completed.
