IREAD and ISTEP-How can I help my child study for these tests coming in March and April?
We will be sending home several different packets of activities/questions to
prepare each third grader for the IREAD and ISTEP assessments. Those packets
will come home mid-February. They will NOT be optional, so we’ll probably scale
down the reading log minutes for those weeks ONLY. More information to come on
that next month. J

Reading Log: Can my child read his story from the reader and count it toward his 20
minutes each night? YES!!!! If you want to read the story to your child (as I
often do with my own 2nd grader, go for it! You’re modeling what a
fluent reader sounds like, and your child will probably gain MORE from
listening and discussing with you than doing so alone.
3.
Math: We will be finishing up Unit 7 and will be testing over the unit next
Friday. Study guides and review sessions will come next week. PRACTICE THOSE
FACTS (multiplication) at home each night to help ACE this unit’s test!
