More about Milestone

Dear Parents,

As you know, the Georgia Milestones start next week.  Milestones will be taken on the computers, and our testing time will be from 10:15-12:30.  Here are the days, and what test comes on each day.  You will notice that we do not have a science and social studies test in fourth grade.

Wednesday, April 19th - Extended Writing
Thursday, April 20th - ELA Part 1
Friday, April 21st - ELA Part 2
Monday, April 24th - Math Part 1
Tuesday, April 25th - Math Part 2

By working together, we can make sure your child's test experience is positive and successful.  Here are some suggestions that you can do to help your child succeed:

  • Make sure your child gets a good night's rest.
  • Have your child eat a healthy breakfast at home or in the cafeteria at school.
  • Send your child with a healthy snack (chips, cookies, and anything else unhealthy will not be allowed).
  • Make sure your child arrives to school on time.
  • Gently encourage your child to do their best.
Please signup for one of the treats on this Signup Genius.  Since our testing starts at 10:15, I want to make sure that all students get a nutritious snack before taking the test each day.  Please bring me the treat that you sign up for by Tuesday, April, 18th so that I can store it in a safe place.  All of your help, and donations are truly appreciated.

 Also, please take a moment to write an encouraging note on the card and envelope I sent home on Friday.  Return this note to me, sealed before testing on Wednesday, and I will give it to your child the first morning of testing.  If you would like to write additional notes, for each day of testing, I am more then willing to take those, and distribute them in written form or print them if you email them to me.

Thank you for your help in making this years milestone a success.

Sincerely,
Ms. Kraftschik
