D.
Continue on with the planned instruction and provide extra homework assignments targeting the area of need for those who did not
demonstrate mastery.
Because it is a beginning-of-the-year benchmark and a significant number of students did not master certain content, the teacher cannot move on until the learning gap has been filled. Once students are in the classroom, it is the teacher’s responsibility to provide the appropriate instruction.
