2 more days of testing to complete and 20 days until the final day of school.
Whew!
Our school starts testing on May 13. My grade level tests for math and reading starting on the 15th. Retakes are then scheduled for the first full week of June. We have 33 more days.
Students take it in fall, winter and spring to see their growth for the quarter/semester in Reading, Math and Language Arts.
Used for RTI as well.
Yes, it's a lot of testing.
I have to work on report cards too.
Thanks. Reading is separated out from language arts? How so?
I dread report cards. Those take forever and the fourth quarter takes even longer due to the addition of the final grade. I don't know why we even give a final grade since each quarter is supposed to represent the student's performance at the time the grade is assigned and is not an average of grades.
I teach Language Arts and Social Studies. Combined with the "Life, Work and Citizenship Skills" grades there are 25 grades per student, but it's doubled because of the final grade. That's a total of 1200 grades for just my homeroom. Add in my afternoon class (their homeroom teacher enters their citizenship grades) and that's a grand total of 1,850 grades that I enter for my 49 students. If I add in the rest of the academic grades (math, science, health, world language) the 49 students each get 90 grades for a total of 4,410 grades for the fourth quarter, assigned and entered by the two classroom teachers.

Yes, Reading and Language Arts are separate for this test. Mostly question about grammar, nouns and onward.
We have progress reports first then report cards in a matter of 2 weeks. Progress reports due on the 7th, report cards due on 17th.
we are required to do 3 grades a week so roughly ever 9 weeks, you are suppose to have 27 grades give or take.
Easy in Reading and Social Studies. I always struggle with Language Arts.

I have just never separated reading from LA. Our reading and writing grades fall under "Language Arts".
Our report cards are called "Progress Reports".
We don't have a required number of grades per quarter. I don't come close to 3 per week.
