School is finally back in session. Week one was only 4 days long and two of those were filled with DIBELS testing the students. This year I have been tasked with helping one of my most wonderful managers Caryn testing the Fourth and Fifth graders. Since I didn't get to DIBELS test all last year (thanks to Carli spinning a fictious yarn about having seen DIBELS books in the house) and because the lower grades are more complicated, testing the two upper grades will go faster and better because they read and retell three stories only. So...we have finished two fifth grade classes so far and tomorrow (the 17th) begins the final fifth grade class and then we move onto the fourth grade classes. I'm guessing we'll be all finished with them by the end of next week (around the 28th). It may not take that long, but there are only two of us testing so it will take awhile. As for Kinder through Third grade, there are five of them testing, and they have way more kiddos to test than Caryn and I do. So, I'm betting that when we are finished we will end up helping them out provided they aren't finished yet. On the 24th NWEA testing starts and Carli's class is the first to be tested in Math. It's a good thing my daughter loves math!
