Get Good Zzzz's

Testing:
Oh January.  January is a very hard and stressful month for the students and the teachers.  Testing, not one but three. The current test we are administering is the District Language Arts and Math test.  This is composed of some whole group and much one on one testing.  This test is simply testing the objectives we have learned up to this point in the year. 

Next week, we will also start the Middle of the Year TPRI.  For most students, we will just be testing comprehension.  If your student was still developing at the beginning of the year, we will administer some additional testing.  All TPRI's are one on one.

Last, starting January 20th- I will be administering DRA's: updating everyone's reading levels.  This is tested one-on-one.  

Although students do not need to study for these test or worry about these tests- I want to make sure everyone is getting plenty of rest at night.  Also, if your child is worried about these tests please let them know that this just helps us know how smart they are!  We will get through January together!!

If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me through email.

Ms. Bennett
