🔴💻 MAP Testing begins this week for our 3rd, 4th & 5th grade students. Please view this schedule with helpful tips to have your students ready for testing. 🟢
Here are a few ways you can make sure that the MAP test reflects their true academic abilities.
⏰ Be aware of the testing schedule. Have your child to school, on time.
-Make sure your child gets adequate rest. This may mean getting them used to an earlier bedtime the weeks prior to testing.
-Please avoid scheduling appointments on testing days.
-Students should each a nutritious breakfast on testing days. We will have snacks for all students on these days as well.
-Dress your child in layered clothing. This way your child may add clothing to get warmer or remove something to cool off.
-Help us reinforce that as long as your child has worked hard in preparation and did their absolute best, we will be proud of them!
