NWEA Testing will start today! We will be testing everyday this week. We will start with the Math NWEA, then go into the Reading NWEA. Remember prepdog.org is a great practice website for both Math and Reading NWEA. Also, I would have students continue taking prepdog.org quizzes for Math and Reading.

4 things you can do to be prepared for testing:

1. Come into school with a positive attitude
2. Eat breakfast
3. Get a good night sleep
4. Try your best!

Please email me or class dojo message me if you need anything else!

NWEA Announcement: We will begin the NWEA Testing next week in the morning. Please check out the reading homework for resources to prepare your child for the test. The NWEA testing period will start Monday, January 13th and end on Friday, January 31st. If you have any questions, please class dojo message me or email me.
