“An effective teacher facilitates student achievement by assessing and analyzing student performance and using this information to measure student progress and guide instructional planning.”
A good teacher keeps track of how their students do on various assignments and looks into why they did or did not do well and uses that information to plan future lessons and encourage students to succeed. Keeping up with student’s progress is important to me because without doing so, it would be easy to assume students are (or are not) making progress, but taking and keeping data would ensure that you are aware of how they are actually doing. Additionally, I know it is important to be willing to change lesson plans to help students if they aren’t doing as well as they should. Flexibility is important for teachers, but you must first know what to be flexible about.

In my practicum, Ms. Wolfe had her students take 3 EOC practice exams. Each student had a paper where they wrote down their score from each test and created a goal on what to make on the next practice (or on the final EOC for the last practice). The scores were kept together so the students could see how they did on each previous test and to see if they met their goals.
 * Evidence:**

Ms. Wolfe did exactly what the standard states when she gave her class EOC practice tests. She kept track of their scores and showed them to the students before each test, helping them to set realistic goals on what their next score would be. She used their progress to make them more comfortable with, and confident about, taking the EOC.
