There will be not TBT's this week due to our MTSS meetings. One of a common themes in TBTs this week has been the discussion around learning vocabulary across the content areas. Please check out the link below for an idea that students love.

Thank you 3rd grade team! This week we reviewed the math interim and made predictions about student performance on each problem. 3rd grade teachers have a plan before the test and how they will practice.

Key Before Testing Reminders

• Take the Interim Yourself: Review the test in the Interim Folder or preview it online to anticipate student misconceptions and model effective scratch-paper strategies. Record your predictions and curiosities about student performance on the Data Analysis Worksheet.

• Prepare Student Materials: Print test tickets from TIDE (for OST-tested subjects) or set up your online portal in Renaissance (for Grades 4, 6, 7 Science). Ensure students have pencils, scratch paper, and approved calculators/reference sheets. Pro Move: Set up the paper with students and number the page so you can collect their work and understand why they chose an answer when reviewing results later.

• Frame the Purpose: Remind students that interims are not graded - they are tools to help us see what standards have been mastered, what needs review, and how to prepare for the OST.
