Jennings, Austin S. – Elementary School Journal, 2023
Teachers' data literacy and interpretive process are critical to understanding how they make sense of data. However, little is known about how mental representations shape and evolve in response to teachers' interpretive process. In the present study, I model and explore this recursive relationship between teachers' cognitive framing and…

Kuzmina, Yulia; Ivanova, Alina; Denisov, Ilya – Elementary School Journal, 2023
Various factors at the individual and school levels contribute to the impairment of academic achievement. We examined whether academic class composition, measured as average class achievement and class heterogeneity (variance in achievement within class), moderates the associations of inattentiveness and hyperactivity/impulsivity with academic…

Neugebauer, Sabina Rak; Sandilos, Lia; DiPerna, James; Hunter, Leah; Hart, Susan Crandall; Ellis, Emmaline – Elementary School Journal, 2023
Schools are increasingly adopting universal social-emotional learning (SEL) programs to support students' prosocial development and academic success. When adopted across contexts and student populations, SEL interventions can be implemented in different ways, particularly under typical classroom conditions that are not part of research efficacy…

Toste, Jessica R.; McLean, Leigh; Peng, Peng; Didion, Lisa; Filderman, Marissa J.; Sparapani, Nicole; Connor, Carol McDonald – Elementary School Journal, 2023
Small-group instruction has the potential to support students' reading growth. Teachers can use knowledge of students' skill profiles to inform the types and amounts of instruction they provide; however, the extent to which teachers do this is largely unknown. Among first (n = 661) and third graders (n = 364), we investigated whether (1) teacher…

Knake, Kaitlin Torphy; Chen, Zixi; Yang, Xiuqi; Tait, Jordan – Elementary School Journal, 2021
In an era of social media, and amid the coronavirus pandemic, teachers' curation of instructional resources stands as an opportunity to observe teachers' planning and conceptualization of their practice in real time. This work explores the resources teachers curate, their rigor, and the effects on students' learning across years. Merging big data…

Lewis, Kendra M.; Holloway, Stefanie D.; Bavarian, Niloofar; Silverthorn, Naida; DuBois, David L.; Flay, Brian R.; Siebert, Carl F. – Elementary School Journal, 2021
The national conversation about the importance of social-emotional competencies, such as prosocial behaviors, responsible decision-making, and problem-solving, has increased greatly in the last 2 decades. There is, however, less robust evidence for social and emotional learning programs' impact on social and emotional outcomes when implemented in…

Gatlin-Nash, Brandy; Hwang, Jin Kyoung; Tani, Novell E.; Zargar, Elham; Wood, Taffeta Star; Yang, Dandan; Powell, Khamia B.; Connor, Carol McDonald – Elementary School Journal, 2021
Teachers' perceptions of their students' academic skills can affect students' achievement and may be influenced by unrelated student characteristics such as socioeconomic status (SES). In this ad hoc randomized controlled trial, teachers (n = 28) were randomly assigned to receive training on using assessment to guide literacy instruction,…

Anderson, Sara; Romm, Katelyn – Elementary School Journal, 2020
Research suggests that elementary school absenteeism can contribute to deficits in achievement. It is less clear how the timing and growth in rates of attendance shape early elementary school achievement. The present study examined the role of absenteeism in pre-K and early elementary school in the context of third-grade achievement, along with…

Rogers, Laura K.; Doan, Sy – Elementary School Journal, 2019
This article examines the extent to which both teacher and student assignment patterns are associated with inequitable classroom compositions within schools. From a sample of about 30,000 elementary school classrooms in Tennessee, we first investigate the characteristics that predict a switch in a teacher's assignment to a new grade or school.…

Goddard, Yvonne L.; Goddard, Roger D.; Bailes, Lauren P.; Nichols, Robert – Elementary School Journal, 2019
The purpose of this study was twofold: to examine the influence of instructional leadership on teachers' reports of the use of differentiated instruction in their schools and to investigate whether higher levels of differentiated instruction positively predicted student achievement. We collected teacher survey data from a sample of 95…

Quinn, David M.; Stewart, Ashley M. – Elementary School Journal, 2019
As the racial/ethnic makeup of the U.S. student population becomes increasingly diverse, the teaching force has remained primarily white. Given this mismatch, and the consequences that educators' racial attitudes have for students' academic and developmental outcomes, it is important to understand the racial attitudes of white educators and how…

Brown, Christopher P.; Englehardt, Joanna; Ku, Da Hei; Barry, David P. – Elementary School Journal, 2019
Over the last 2 decades, policymakers' standards-based accountability reforms in the United States, such as the No Child Left Behind Act, have fundamentally changed public schooling in general and kindergarten specifically. As this has occurred, little is known about how families make sense of these changes in schooling. By sharing findings from a…

Neumerski, Christine M.; Grissom, Jason A.; Goldring, Ellen; Rubin, Mollie; Cannata, Marisa; Schuermann, Patrick; Drake, Timothy A. – Elementary School Journal, 2018
Teacher evaluation systems that pair measures of teacher observation with measures of student achievement or growth have become widespread. However, little attention has focused on the impact of teacher evaluation systems--and, in particular, the intensive collection and use of data from teacher observations--on principals. Drawing on interviews…

Harbour, Kristin E.; Adelson, Jill L.; Pittard, Caroline M.; Karp, Karen S. – Elementary School Journal, 2018
Using restricted-use data from the 2011 National Assessment of Educational Progress mathematics assessment, the current study examined the relationship between the presence of elementary mathematics coaches and specialists (MCSs) and the mathematics achievement of more than 190,000 fourth-grade students in more than 7,400 schools nationwide. In…

Diab, Safwat Y. M.; Guillaume, Marja; Punamäki, Raija-Leena – Elementary School Journal, 2018
Based on the ecological-transactional model by Bronfenbrenner, this study tested the mediating roles of school, family, and child characteristics between academic achievement and both traumatic war experiences and stressful life events. It further examined which of these characteristics could protect academic achievement from negative trauma…
