6-Q Sixth Grade Assessment
Starts Today
Yes, that's right! 6-Q Sixth Grade Assessment starts today, Wednesday January 9, 2013. Starting today, 6-Q students will spend time "presearching" topics for the Sixth Grade Assessment (SGA). Presearching gives students an opportunity to find the necessary sources/materials in our Jamison library. During the presearching step of the assessment, students spend time finding encyclopedia articles, specialized reference books, nonfiction books and magazines, on-line database articles, and internet articles. 6-Q students will continue to presearch during library time on Wednesdays in January.
