On April 26th, the first graders will take the first portion of the NWEA Test. All students will start the math portion this week and will work on the reading portion the following week. The children will have two forty minute sessions to complete all 56 questions. I would encourage them to take their time, listen carefully and read through all the answer selections. Many kids rush through the test and it shows in their scores. Please discuss with them the importance of listening, thinking and time.
Please continue to have your child read nightly. When you read you will succeed!!
