How much time should my students be using Classworks each day?

We recommend setting aside 45 minutes each day for students to work in Classworks. This time allows for:

  • Screening
  • Intervention work
  • Progress Monitoring
  • Mastery Measurement
  • Goal tracking

Students' actual time on task will most likely be closer to about 30 minutes, but setting aside 45 minutes provides a buffer for students to get logged in and set up, switching between activities, etc., to ensure they have that time to get a full session in.

Students who consistently spend 30+ minutes weekly working on each Learning Path (Reading and Math) achieve the expected achievement growth!


Example Weekly Schedule

Day of the Week Reading/Language Arts Mathematics
Monday 15 Min: Progress Monitoring Probe 20 Min: Individualized Learning Path
Tuesday 20 Min: Individualized Learning Path 15 Min: Progress Monitoring Probe
Wednesday 10 Min: Monthly Scores Review 20 Min: Individualized Learning Path
Thursday 20 Min: Individualized Learning Path 10 Min: Mastery Measurement Probe
Friday

10 Min: Mastery Measurement Probe

10 Min: My Smart Tracker Conversation

10 Min: Monthly Scores Review


The above example shows a student supported in Tier 1 or Core.  Students receiving Tier 2 or Tier 3 supports would benefit from additional time. We recommend 60-90 minutes per subject per week in their ELA and Math ILPs.
