  Case: Pacing Crazy
The math pacing is seven units long. The last unit is called "show what you know" and does not require a pre or post assessment. The remaining 6 units do require the assessments. The present pacing of the math units and standards follow the rigorous trend but the standards clearly gives an end of the year expectation mastery deadline. Yet in the district teachers are forced to rush the students through multiple skills in six weeks then assess for mastery. The students are feeling the affects of the pacing as well. Performance in general is low. There is also very little time within the pacing to reteach and/ or recover other assessments.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is common throughout all subject areas. With the standards being so high and the students not being able to move as fast as the standards want them to it is becoming a huge problem. The students performances are showing the low grades, and unfortunately there is no time to go back over the content or reteach at the pace that the students need.
