Hi everyone!
Well, I can't believe it, September is upon us! Over the next 2 weeks during our technology time we will be having MAP tests. These tests are excellent indicators of your child's reading level, (along with dibels, and other pre-assessments I have been giving your children.) I have listened to each of your children read, looked at their dibels (test on oral fluency), reviewed their 3rd grade CSAP scores, read their first book reports, and graded their first reading tests. With all of this information we have placed your children in a leveled reading group for first quarter. Our final beginning of the year assessment is the MAP tests - given 3 times a year. Please stress to your children these tests, even though on the computer, are important. Be sure your children are rested and have eaten good breakfasts each morning. Thank you for your help and support! I will send home a brief report of all of the test results as soon as I have the MAP scores!

Have a super week!!!
