MAP Assessments

We will be testing on Wednesday [9/18] and Thursday [9/19].

Students MUST bring their CHARGED DISTRICT-ISSUED CHROMEBOOK to test on those days!!  

MAP (Measure of Academic Progress) testing will take place THREE times during our school year.  These tests are done on a computer and they measure academic growth throughout the year.  The tests are unique as they can adapt to your your students's level of learning!  Each student has the same opportunity to set goals for themselves and to succeed while maintaining a positive attitude toward testing!  MAP tests take a shorter amount of time to administer and give us detailed accurate information about their growth.  Check out THIS Parent's Guide to MAP Growth!

Reading is so important to a child's success in school and beyond. Scholastic is an easy, inexpensive way to add to your child's home library. Classroom points earned from your orders are used to purchase new books for our classroom lending library and to get FREE books to give throughout the year.

Please order online using our special code.  You can also log in to the Scholastic Website to order from any of the catalogs--different grade levels, specific authors, topics, or themes.  Have fun browsing!!

Padlet

PADLET is an online tool we use to discuss questions and quotations. It is a chance for every child to be able to express themselves to an audience. A new PADLET will be posted each week on the website and I will post their responses to Twitter.  This week no names were used so the kids could express their inner thoughts. Most weeks, they will include their names. It is important for kids to know they are not alone and that others feel the same things.

   

Fingerprinting

Live Scan Finger Printing will be available at Back to School Night, 9/10 from 5:00-7:00. The cost will be $45--cash or card only & you must have a valid ID.
