    NO HOMEWORK!!    

     "The Plan" for the week of Oct. 29th - Nov. 1st  

    MAP testing for your 5th grader started today & continues through Wednesday, Oct., 30th.   


      WHAT IS MAP TESTING?
    • MAP assessments provide detailed data about where each child is on their unique learning path.
    • MAP adapts to a student’s responses – as they take the test.
      • Answer a question correctly and the test presents a more challenging item
      • Miss a question, and MAP offers a simpler item
      In this way, the test narrows in on a student’s learning level, engaging them with content that allows them to succeed.
