the NWEA\/MAP test that is given a few times a year. \u00a0The activities and games are based on the RIT score your child received. \u00a0You can find the RIT score (it is a 3 digit number) on the graph that I shared with you at conferences. \u00a0Once they have mastered those levels, they can challenge themselves by moving into higher RIT bands.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align:
