This year, we have to administer the SAGE Writing Assessment earlier in February. (The SAGE Language Arts and Math Assessments will be given in May.) We have been working really hard at school on writing informative and opinion pieces to prepare. This is all pretty new to our class because we’ve never taken the end of year test before third grade.
FYI: Our SAGE Writing Test sessions are on next Tuesday, February 3rd and Wednesday, February 5th. Please make sure your child has a nice big, healthy breakfast with lots of sleep!
I am attaching another permission slip today(I know, another one…) for chewing peppermint gum during SAGE Testing. Studies show that the peppermint calms the students and helps them focus during long tests. Please read and submit the permission slip with your child before next Tuesday, February 3rd. Thanks for all your help and support!
