This year as 3rd graders the students will be taking the Smarter Balance State test online. In order to get them ready for this test in April/May it is very important that they spend some time practicing the test online. This will help them get ready to take the test at school.
The URL for the practice test is : HERE

| The second window will ask "Is This You?" Please select 3rd grade for the test. |

| Once you reach this section of the site select either ELA or Math. It is important to try both sections. After you have selected the test you want to do a practice test on it will ask "Is This Your Test?" please select "Yes". Audio Playback will ask you to test the sound on your computer once you have select "Heard" Instructions show you how to use the mini tools that are included on the Smarter Balance test. Students do not need to use the calculator, but zooming in and out can be valuable. Once you have read through the instructions you will click "Begin Test Now". Students will be allowed to do the practice tests as often as they like and it is important they work on this at least once a week. We will be doing our own practice tests in class as we get closer to the testing window. Please take the time to go over this at home as well. The more practice the better. Thank you, Mrs. Walker |
