NWEA computer testing (reading and math) is coming soon!! We will test in person mid-May– how can I help make sure my child is ready??? ***Read this important post!*** Thank you families for your support!
Exact test dates are still being determined but we will let you know soon! Testing will be IN PERSON on their scheduled A/B day and take place in the CLASSROOM!!!
On Wednesday we dd practice NWEA test questions on ZOOM– please make sure your child is at a good learning spot for ZOOM— a table or sitting UP on the floor— no laying in bed or sitting on the couch!
**We will do more practice in person in person, but they need to be getting ready to show what they know all by themselves and have stamina to be focused for this long computer test— about 50 questions. It usually takes about 45 minute to an hour to complete and we do some stretch breaks through out but being focused and trying their best is so important! Please reinforce this at home by working for 10-15 FOCUSED minutes on a task, taking a short stretch or brain break and then getting back to work and continuing this cycle.

Rainbow “e” how to video!!! Make sure to go on 10 minutes on math path, 10 minutes on reading path, and continue 10 minutes on reading eggs each day!! Set a timer and do a short break in between each 10 minute “session”!! Rainbow “e” is linked to NWEA testing sores and is a great way to “practice” for this important standardized computer test that we take 3 times a year (Fall, Winter, and Spring)– its almost time for spring testing!!!

The Rainbow “e” website is tied to their NWEA score from the fall (if they did not do fall testing– this site will not work– do abcya.com letters and numbers instead) soooo rainbow “e” is excellent practice for NWEA testing and using the same language and vocabulary as NWEA test questions!! Build up that stamina by doing 15 minutes on rainbow “e” math and 15 minutes on reading rainbow “e” EACH DAY— school days, at home days, even weekend days!! The kids really like this website!!! It is a great learning tool!
Thank you families for helping make sure your child is ready for these important tests to SHOW what you KNOW!! And show that they are ready for 1st grade even though this has been a difficult year, I am soooo proud of everyone’s (parents too!!!) hard work and hope this testing is able to show that we really have succeeded and learned so much this year and are READY for 1st GRADE!!!!

Love,
Mrs. Rawson
