Many parents express concern about the testing or assessment that typically begins a Kindergartners school experience. These tests are used to determine a baseline or starting point for student learning. Students are typically assessed on their letter knowledge, concepts about print, reading level, basic math skills (such as counting, shapes, colors), and language skills. These assessments help teachers to identify where children are academically and create the best learning environment for each child. Many parents often enjoy meeting with their child's teacher at the end of the year to look at where their children started and how far they have come! Calendar of 2010 Activities |
