Well it's nearly that time of year again when students in year 3 and 5 take part in the National Assessment Program for Literacy and Numeracy - otherwise known as NAPLAN. The tests take place in week 3 in the 4/5/6 classroom in the morning session. There are 4 tests which cover a range of areas of literacy and numeracy. The schedule is:
Tuesday 10th May |
9.00am-10.00am Language Conventions |
10.10am - 11.10pm Writing |
|
Wednesday 11th May |
9.00am-10.00am Reading |
Thursday 12th May |
9.00am-10.00am Numeracy |
Sometimes parents get more worried than children about these tests. You needn't be. The tests do not contribute to school reports and assess their learning in whole to date.
