Alteration to Skills Test Study Guides

In the interest of reducing the amount of time needed to take tomorrow's test, I will be shortening it to only 3 sections. I am removing the "responding to literature" section from all three grade levels. I have reviewed the assessments I have given this quarter and determined that I have enough to feel satisfied that students have met the literature standards covered this quarter.

The sections that will remain are vocabulary, inferences, and point/support. This reduction in length will make the test easy to complete in our 40 minute class period.
