We are excited to kick off our IAR and Spring Assessment prep process this coming week. In order to model the best practices in problem solving and working through sample problems, we have created a weekly calendar for all staff to model a past IAR test problem in a selected content area with staff. The intent is to not teach to the test, but rather to model and discuss how to apply learning strategies that we have learned the first semester to problems. These discussions should take place any time during the week and emphasize the vocabulary of the content area. The problems were selected through a deep dive of our past IAR test results and analyzing the reported standard progress students would need further support and discussion. We will also be hosting two virtual parent IAR informational nights that are noted on the attached calendars. Please share those dates with your students and families to attend as well.
