CLASSROOM CERTIFICATION SCRIPT 2026
QUESTIONS WITH SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
◍ Depending on a school’s available resources, a variety of qualified
individuals (e.g., intervention provider, special education teacher) can
implement DB
I. Regardless of who provides the intervention and collects the progress
monitoring and diagnostic assessment data, however, a team of school
professionals should be involved in making instructional decisions for
individual students based on their data. These decisions should not be made
by a single individual..
Answer: Who implements DBI?
◍ DBI (Data-Based Individualization).
Answer: _____ is a process. It is not an intervention, a program, or a
strategy.
◍ An accounting teacher had students complete a knowledge check question
during a lesson. there are 20 students in the class. the teacher found that 18
students identified correct value, 10 students identified the type of value
correctly and 19 students performed the correct calculation. which
instructional adjustment is appropriate based on the results of the
assessment?.
Answer: Use the next part of the lesson to review the different types values
◍ executive functions.
Answer: ome students struggle, despite their hard work and effort, because
they have deficits in __________ ____________ , the cognitive processes
, that control and coordinate activities related to learning. These activities
include:Processing informationRetaining and recalling
informationOrganizing materials and managing timeSelecting, monitoring,
and using effective strategies
◍ Understand why students are struggling to make progress on certain
tasksIdentify the skills or areas in which a student strugglesMake
intervention adaptations that align with a student’s needs.
Answer: What is the purpose of diagnostic assessment?
◍ error analysis.
Answer: Teachers can conduct an ________ _____________—the process
of reviewing error patterns to identify a student’s skill deficits—with
progress monitoring data and work samples. An ___________
_____________ can help a teacher determine what types of errors were
made and why. By identifying error patterns, the teacher can identify a
student’s skill deficits and can subsequently align intervention adaptations to
the student’s specific needs.
◍ Diagnostic Assessment.
Answer: Progress Monitoring or Diagnostic assessment? Determine the type
of change that needs to be made
◍ lA geography teacher is covering Asia in the current unit . The teacher has
found that 20 students are proficient in country names , 5 students are
proficient in lakes and oceans , 14 students are proficient in major cities ,
and 8 students are proficient in major rivers . There are 24 students in the
class . What is the area of greatest strength for the students , based on the
given data ?.
Answer: Country names
◍ True: Curriculum-based measurements allow teachers to track skills from an
entire year's curriculum and monitor progress..
Answer: True or FalseCurriculum-based measurements are an appropriate
means to conduct progress monitoring.
, ◍ The teacher is looking to gather detailed information useful in curriculum
planning..
Answer: Diagnostic assessments are only implemented when:
◍ In order to address the objective , " Students will correctly express at least
four of the six trigonometric ratios when given a labeled right triangle and
an angle , " a math teacher is giving an exam with five triangles . Students
must write the correct trigonometric ratios for one angle of each of the five
triangles . Which standard is aligned with the objective and assessment ?.
Answer: Understand and apply trigonometric ratios.
◍ fidelity.
Answer: In addition to implementing interventions systematically, it is also
critical that teachers implement them with __________ that is implement
them in the way the instructional decision-making team intended. For
example, the team decides that a student would benefit from explicit
instruction. To determine to what extent the teacher is delivering the
adaptation with fidelity, an experienced or trained individual should be
responsible for monitoring the teacher’s instruction. By doing so, the team
can determine whether or not the adaptation was delivered as planned. If the
intervention is delivered with ____________ and the student shows
improvement, the team can conclude that the adaptation(s) was effective for
this student.
◍ The teacher of an engineering class is having students work on a project in
which they build a model bridge using hot glue and craft sticks . The project
is being used as an assessment for the objective , " Given basic materials ,
students will build a 24 - inch model bridge that supports a minimum of 10
pounds . " Which standard is aligned with the assessment and objective ?.
Answer: Create and implement solutions to real - world problems .
◍ For the final project for chemistry students , they were required to conduct
and document an experiment . The teacher found that the class average for
procedures was 86 % , the class average for documentation was 52 % , and
the class average for conclusions was 82 % . How should instruction be
