MAP Testing is coming up!
Dear Parents,
It is almost that time of year again! 2nd Grade scheduled to take the MAP test beginning Monday, April 30th. In order to end the year positively, I wanted to send out a few reminders to help make this testing week go as smoothly as possible.
TESTING TIPS :
2. Get to school on time! Feeling rushed does not prepare students for success. We will begin at 7:45am.
3. Encourage your child to think positively and take their time! Too much pressure is stressful for young children!
4. Please remind students to NEVER discuss scores with other students. This can negatively effect other students.
5. If you chose to do some reviewing each night, please try make it fun! We do not want our young ones to feel overwhelmed before/ during testing!
