Here’s some information regarding the week of Monday, September 21st - Friday September 25th…

ONLINE STUDENT ASSESSMENT: On Monday, September 21st and Tuesday, September 22nd, Mr. Olsen’s 2020-2021 Fourth Grade Class will be focusing our Zoom instructional sessions on completing District-mandated assessments with our students.  We will be conducting testing in English Language Arts and Math using the Northwestern Evaluation Association’s (NWEA) Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) online assessment tool.  This will take place during our Zoom instructional time on Monday and Tuesday between 10:30am-12noon. Students should join our Zoom meetings as they typically do on these days. 

We will be testing English Language Arts skills on Monday and Math skills on Tuesday.  Those students who participated in our English Language Arts “trial run” with Mr. Moore last Friday will be given the option to get a head start on their daily classwork while those who did not take the English Language Arts test on Friday will be testing during Zoom time on Monday.  ALL students will be taking the Math assessment on Tuesday during our Zoom time.  Students will still be given classwork to work on during the afternoon, as well.  Our typical Zoom instructional days will resume on Wednesday.  The results of your child’s testing will be shared with you during Parent-Teacher Conferences, to be held through Zoom on October 8th and October 9th.  Information regarding how to sign-up for Parent-Teacher Conference times will be shared with families next week.
