Practice AIR

Today we took a practice AIR Assessment in class online. This was done for only an hour and the purpose was for districts to check their wifi and make sure that districts all have the capability to give the online assessments all at the same time. The awesome thing about this practice test is that it gave the students and teachers a chance to really see the format of AIR and what typically questions might be like for math and reading. The students had a chance to play around with the tools and ask questions after it. We will continue to take our quizzes and assessments in reading online and I will continue to strive to make these assessments mimic what they will see on the AIR fall assessment (taken Dec 1-2) and the AIR Spring Assessment (take in April). Please feel free to ask your student about what they noticed or what may have surprised them on this practice test.
