Wisconsin Forward Spring State Assessment
The Wisconsin Forward Exam will be given in schools between March 18 and May 3, 2019. The Forward Exam is a state mandated summative assessment which provides information about what students know and can do in relation to the Wisconsin Academic Standards. Students receive a score based on their performance in each content area.There are sample or practice test questions available for students. An Online Tools Training (OTT) is available for students at http://dpi.wi.gov/assessment/forward/sample-items. The OTT is intended to give students the opportunity to practice with tools available on the Forward Exam, as well as allow them to familiarize themselves with the testing platform. The OTT is not scored, nor is it intended to provide practice on the test content. Students will be exploring these tools and training at school prior to testing.
The Forward Exam will be administered online and be given to:
- Grades 3-8 in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics,
- Grades 4 and 8 in Science and,
- Grades 4, 8, and 10 in Social Studies
The Forward Exam includes several question types:
- Multiple-Choice (MC): Question that has four answer choices, including three distractors and one correct answer.
- Enhanced Selected Response (ESR): Question which may contain combinations of MC, short-answer, and technology-enhanced.
- Evidence-Based Selected Response (ESBR): Question which has two parts. The student answers Part A, then provides evidence in Part B to support answer in Part A.
- Text-Dependent Analysis (TDA): Question used on the ELA test. The TDA is a text-based analysis, based on a passage that is read by the student during the assessment. Students must draw on basic writing skills while inferring and synthesizing information from the passage in order to develop a comprehensive, holistic essay response. Students have up to 5000 characters to formulate their response.
- Technology-Enhanced (TE): TE questions allow for a more engaging, interactive assessment.
Accommodations and supports for students with disabilities and/or English language learners are built into the system so that the progress of students can be accurately measured.
The estimated time for the test administration in each grade is approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes for ELA, 1 hour and 45 minutes for Mathematics, 1 hour and 40 minutes for Science, and 1 hour and 30 minutes for Social Studies. These are estimated times, as the WI Forward Exam is not a timed test so students work at their own pace.
If you have any questions or concerns about the new assessment, please contact the office.
Summer School - 2019
Before we know it Summer School registration will be here. Feel free to keep referring back to the Summer School Website to stay up-to-date:Doodle for Google
Doodle for Google contest entries for grades 2-4 are due to Mrs. Siegel by March 12th. A parent signature is required and the whole top of the contest form needs to be completed. We have a lot of creative artists entering!!Snowshoeing in PE
As you are aware, Gym A is still under construction and we have been making alternate plans. PE Teachers Mollie Stratton and Kenny Halloran have been working with 1000 Islands to get snowshoes to use for the next two weeks. The snowshoes have arrived at school! Students in 2nd, 3rd and 4th grades will be going outside as long as the temperature is above 0.Please remember to continue sending snowpants, hats, gloves, jackets and boots because they will be using these during Phy Ed time as well as recesses. It would be a good idea to send an extra pair of mittens or gloves for the day because they are used for recess as well as snowshoeing. It may also be a good idea to send an additional pair of socks in the event that they get wet while they are outside.
Please let me know if you have questions!
