Tomorrow we begin MAP testing
in grades 3-5. By working together, we can make this a positive
experience for your child! Here are some suggestions to help your child
succeed.
·
Be
sure your child is well-rested.
·
Start
the day with a protein-packed breakfast.
·
Remind
your child to use the tools we have practiced in guidance lessons. Throughout
the year, we have worked on strategies to help us get into the “green zone”
like deep breathing and positive self-talk. Check out https://www.stopbreathethink.com/
for guided meditations.
·
Give
compliments for effort: “I’m proud of how hard you have worked this
year.” Even better…send them to school each day with a note of
encouragement!
MAP test sessions will run
Tuesday through Friday for the next two weeks. 3rd and 4th
graders will begin at 8:30; 5th graders will begin at 10:45.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Have a great week!
