Hello parents,
State Assessments are right around the corner and we are gearing up here at Paseo Pointe! It is your chance to show how much we have learned this year!
In order to prepare for the test and be familiar with all the testing features, we are taking some time to do practice tests during class. However, I’d also like to encourage you to visit the testing websites with your child and practice navigating each test and its features together. Then, take a selfie of you and your child doing the Practice Test at home and forward it to me!
We are calling this the Practice Test Selfie Challenge! 
 
Each student who participates receives a prize and also enters a drawing to win cool prizes like a bluetooth speaker, cordless headphones, sports equipment, art supplies, etc!
 
Deadline is April 8th!
