You could generate data by recording the scores of the assessment in a grade book. If they have not met the
level of proficiency on the assessment you need to assess where they are struggling. Are they struggling with
one resource and not another? Are they struggling understanding the vocabulary? If this is the case taking
time to explain the vocabulary should help get the student up to the level of proficiency. You could also
provide resources such as books and the internet to help them understand the content.

If a student is proficient early they can start to think about and write about how we adapt to and
modify our natural resources.
Students are able to work together and do not have to work alone.
If a student is still not proficient near the end of the lesson figure out where they are struggling. If they
were messing around they will have to finish the assignment for homework. If they genuinely do not
understand do a quick one-on-one with them and see if that helps to clear things up.
