January 31, 2020



Um is it kindness week???? The students were not feeling it. We had more referrals this week than any other week. Not sure what was going on but we sure were trying to spread the love and it was not happening!! Remember to consistently hold class meetings. It DOES make a difference. Thank you. I appreciate everything YOU do for our school and students. 



MAP Winter Test Administration - Let’s See that Growth!
Top 4 Reports That Every Teacher Should Run After Administering MAP:
1.      Class
2.      Class Breakdown
3.      Project Summary (choose Fall to Winter)
4.      Student Profile - This reports shows each student’s projection for the CAASPP. This report  is a great tool for parent meetings, student goal setting, and resources for students.

MAP testing at SV will take place next week. Remember the classroom teacher is responsible for make ups.

A quick reminder:
· Students will have ONE opportunity to test in Reading and mathematics. They will no longer be able to retest. This will help keep testing to a minimum. It is critical that you proctor and monitor the students closely so that you can be sure students gave their best effort so that accurate data is measured on where students are in their learning. In addition, the system will prompt the proctor letting them know if a student is "rapid guessing". 
· Equity for All - Accessibility & Accommodations - Removing Barriers - Be sure to look at the available supports. Here is the link to see what is available in MAP
· To turn on Text-To-Speech - Simply turn the Chromebook on and click on "Ctrl Alt Z and this will turn on the ChromeVox spoken feedback feature. Then open the MAP APP and the screen content will be read aloud. Students will need earbuds.

Support our student council and buy a luv-a-gram (Feb. 3-12) for your students. You may want to check with student council and get a list of students who may not receive one and buy one for that student. This is a great way to make their day and support our school!
