CDS - First Program
The Weekly Word from CDS FP - Sep 4-Sep 8, 2017
Looking Back
- Welcome Nana, Alex, and Yousif! Three new students joined FP last week. The First Program welcomes them and their families into our community. If you see some new faces around school - say hello and introduce yourself!
- Ms. Menzel and FP TV have their first show of the season - Last Week This Morning - uploaded to youtube. Take a look! Students are working hard to improve each and every episode - they work on everything from stories, news, camera angles, pronunciation, articulation, lighting, editing, etc!
- Who was looking sharp in their new team uniforms? Grade 4s - that's who! Grade 4s played soccer this past Saturday and they were great! It was a hot day out there in the sun, and they played at least five games each - most students even helped out on the G5 team and got some valuable playing with the 5s. Thank you to the parents for coming out and supporting the students! Great job, Lil' Phoenixes!

MAP Growth Tests
Dear Grade 1-4 Parents,
From September 11-15 , your child will take tests called Measures of Academic Progress (MAP Growth). We give students MAP Growth tests to determine your child’s instructional level and to measure academic growth throughout the school year, and from year to year in the areas of Math, Language and Reading. Your child will take the tests on his/her school-supplied Chromebook.
9월 11일부터 15일까지 학생들은 MAP 테스트를 치르게 됩니다. MAP 테스트는 학생들이 수학, 언어,읽기방면에서 얼마만큼 배우고 수업내용을 이해하였는지 확인 할 수 있는 시험입니다. 모든 과정은 학교에서 제공되는 개인 크롬북으로 진행될 예정입니다.
MAP Growth tests are unique in that they adapt to be appropriate for your child’s level of learning. As a result, each student has the same opportunity to succeed and maintain a positive attitude toward testing. And with MAP Growth tests, we can administer shorter tests and use less class time while still receiving detailed, accurate information about your child’s growth. Over the next few days, your child will spend a few hours completing these tests.
시험은 학생의 실력에 따라 문제의 난이도가 달라지기 때문에 모든 학생들은 어려움 없이 시험에 임할 수 있을 것 입니다. MAP 테스트는 수업시간 동안에 진행될 예정이지만 너무 많은 수업시간을 할애하지는 않을 것 입니다. 학교는 이번 시험을 통해 학생들에 대한 정확하고 자세한 정보를 얻을수 있을 것 입니다.
Each school year, students in grades 1-4 take the tests three times throughout the year. Following each testing period, you will receive a report showing your child’s growth.
1 부터 4학년 학생들은 1년에 총 3회에 걸쳐 MAP 테스트를 보게 될것입니다. 학부모님께서도 이에대한 결과를 성적표로서 받아 보시고 얼마만큼 자녀들이 성장 하였는지 확인하실수 있으실 것입니다.
We are excited to begin a new era that focuses on every child’s individual growth and achievement. Partnering to help all kids learn, parents and teachers can have a profound positive effect on the lives of our children.
저희는 학생 개개인의 성장과 학업적 성취에 새롭게 관심 가질수 있게 되어 큰 기대를 하고 있습니다. 학생들의 배움에 부모님과 선생님의 참여는 학생들의 삶에 큰 영향을 미칠수 있다고 생각합니다.
