We are completing our MAP testing this week. It will be exciting to see the growth over the past few months.
Kids A-Z I have peeked at everyone’s progress in this reading app. I have adjusted levels to match their current ability. The kids listen to a digital book, read it alone and then answer 5 comprehension questions. I will be monitoring this more closely second semester and expect to see the kids moving independently into higher levels. Your kids may do this app at home, too.
