LinkIt! is a multifaceted digital solution that allows school to track academic progress, predict future success, and warehouse data in order to drive differentiated instruction annually and across grade levels. Haledon will be using the LinkIt! Benchmark assessments three times per year to gain insights into student needs by analyzing data and using it to tailor instruction.
Thursday's training will be virtual. Please log onto the following Meet at 8:30:

Once our overview with Dan Gross has concluded, you will be taking a practice assessment test so that you can see how the platform is formatted and what kinds of ELA and Math questions students will face.
The Benchmarks are based closely on the New Jersey State Learning Assessments (NJSLA: aka, PARCC) and provide students with a very close approximation of the state test-taking experience. Keep this practice test in mind as you teach your classes this year, in any subject area, and see how you can incorporate ways to support ELA or Math content or test-taking strategies.
To take the practice test, click on this page and decide which test you wish you take. Follow the directions on the page to select a code for your chosen test, go to the test website, and begin your test.
