Dear 3rd and 4th grade parents,
Your child received a two-page report from his/her teacher recently. This report is based on your child’s error history (type of question missed most often) when taking the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS).
The classroom teacher spent a few minutes going over the information on these sheets and then showed the students how to access the tutorials that go along with the information. Basically, the code associated with the most common errors is located slightly below the middle of each page. A short tutorial program has been prepared that matches each error code. These math and language tutorials can be found on our Pleasantdale Elementary School web page.
I encourage parents to check out the tutorials to identify areas of improvement. I also encourage you to attend one of the “Understanding Your Child’s ITBS Scores” information sessions on Tuesday, February 7. Sessions will be held from 10:00 - 11:00 a.m. at the elementary school and 6:00 - 7:00 p.m. in the District Boardroom.
Feel free to contact me with any questions, concerns, or suggestions.
Matt Vandercar
