The past two days your child has taken County Assessments. These assessments were in both reading and math. These are assigned by the county to help us gage the growth of your child. They are based on FCAT style math and reading questions.
Your child may talk about these assessments. Please encourage them to keep doing their best. This is new to all of us, including the teachers. We do not know what will be on the assessments, just like taking the FCAT. In class we continue to work on all the skills that have been presented. Each night there is homework to help develop those skills. Until we have further input, this practice will continue. I will update you on any new information we receive from the county about these assessments. Just stay postive with your child as we all learn the process together.
