Practice STAAR Tests
Last week we completed the released STAAR tests for fourth grade. We reviewed the reading test today in class and the students brought it home today for a PARENT SIGNATURE by Friday.
** The reason for the signature is for you to have the opportunity to see what the state expects out of fourth graders. Please look through the test with your child.
The math test will be reviewed as well and be sent home when complete for a signature.
As always, if you have any concerns regarding the tests, please let us know! FYI: if your student made a 50 or above - then they should do just fine on the actual test!! If they received below a 50, we will be working extra hard in small groups to help support and prepare your child to be successful!
