If your child comes home talking about all the testing we're doing it's not an exaggeration, we are doing a lot of "benchmark testing" which gives us data as to where the students are when they first come into the classroom. Things will cool down in a week or so however. Today we're sending home the first theme test from reading. These bi-weekly theme tests make up the majority of the students letter grade in reading. You can calculate the percentage, and we'll start listing percentage and letter grade on the theme tests with the next one.
