Benchmarking This Week

?>

Parents, your student in 3rd, 4th or 5th grade is benchmarking this week. Monday is math for all grades; Tuesday and Wednesday are the days set aside for reading; and Thursday is for 5th grade science. To “benchmark” a subject means that the teacher gives the student a test over the TAKS material that has been covered so far this year. It is a good gauge of what the students have learned in the first few weeks of school and serves as a way to decide how to proceed. Teachers will determine which students need tutoring, which students are struggling, and which students have a great understanding of the material.

If you have questions about the benchmarking this week, please contact your teacher.
