As we begin to consider the upcoming IAR test this April, we will feature the core tools that students have access to on the assessment. Please take a moment to review the tools and the support it can provide your students during the test. Take a moment to reflect on this first set of IAR tools and consider ways to embed explicitly modeling and having students practice this tool in your content teaching over the next few months. For example during writer's workshop having students using the highlighter tool to reflect on their writing during feedback conference to identify parts they would like specific feedback on. This gives them a chance to practice the features of the highlighter tool. Please make a goal to model a few IAR tools in your content over the next few months.
