Weekly Junior High Update
March 29, 2019
AZMerit Testing
This week scholars will be taking the AZMerit Writing assessment. One of our Core Values is, “We are empowered to achieve beyond test scores and without judgement.” At our core, we want scholars to know that they have many gifts, strengths, and talents and that one test does not define them. However, these tests are extremely important, so we truly appreciate all the families that stress that importance to their scholars.
Here are some ways you can help your scholar achieve success:
Make sure they get plenty of rest the night before testing
Make sure they eat a good breakfast the morning of their test
Encourage them to TAKE THEIR TIME...rushing through the test is one of the biggest reasons scholars will score lower than they would like
Encourage them to utilize scratch paper on all assessments to plan out and work through each task
Make sure they have their supplies each day they test - calculators and headphones
Make sure scholars arrive to school on time the day of their test
By doing these simple things, your child will have the best opportunity to be successful!
Scholars will be testing the following dates:
Monday, 4/1 - 6th grade
Tuesday, 4/2 - 7th grade
Wednesday, 4/3 - 8th grade
Sedimentary
Igneous
Metamorphic
Scholars started by creating sediments and ended with creating all three rock types: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic.
