PARCC Testing Practice

Today we had the opportunity to take a PARCC Tutorial on the Chromebooks in class. The students learned how to use all of the navigation tools provided on the on-line test. They were all patient and good listeners as we worked our way through the tutorial together. The students had an opportunity to try out all of the 'tools' from highlighting and magnifying to answer masking and the answer eliminator. The class surprised me with how well they mastered each task. 

 

We will continue to practice in class with a few more practice sessions before the first PARCC testing in March. Mrs. Richards, our Reading Specialist, will also be in to work with us on the ELA portion of the test. 

On Wednesday, March 11th we will 'officially' begin with a practice test .

On 3/19 and 3/20 the students will be taking Math exams and

On 3/23, 3/24 and 3/25 students will be taking the ELA PARCC exam.
