Morton's Musings
Communication for the week of May 2 - 6
MAPS and DIBELS testing this week
The students will take MAPS (Measure of Academic Progress) and DIBELS (Dynamic Indicator of Basic Early Literacy Skills) this week. The results are reported to the Wyoming Department of Education. I know the students have made amazing reading and math growth this year and am so proud of them. To ensure they do their best on these assessments, please make sure they are getting plenty of rest this week. Also, please ensure they are eating a great breakfast! Thanks for your help as your kiddos get to prove what great thinkers they are in literacy and math!
