Woodland Intermediate School David Lamers, Principal 

  

March 2020 Dear Parent: Wisconsin students in Grades 5 and 6 will be participating in the Forward Exam this spring. Our students are scheduled to take the test March 31, April 1, April 20 and April 21. Makeup testing will occur following each of the exam dates. The Forward Exam tests intermediate students in the areas of English Language Arts and Math. One or more subtests may be administered each morning during the test week. Included in this newsletter is an Informational Brochure for Families which contains information about the assessment including the purpose, what scores will be provided, and how the scores will be used. It is important that your son or daughter be in school during this time. Please make every effort to avoid scheduling appointments for your child(ren) where possible. If your family has an unavoidable conflict, please let your child’s homeroom teacher know so that alternate arrangements can be made. Students not in school on the scheduled testing days will be scheduled for a make-up test prior to the close of the testing window. Please feel free to reach out to your child’s homeroom teacher or me if you have any questions about the Forward Exam. I can be reached at 920-730-0924 ext. 2 or through email at [email protected]. Sincerely,

Dave Lamers Principal

When does the Forward Exam take place? The Forward Exam will be given in schools between March 23 and May 1, 2020. Schools are permitted to select their own testing dates within this window.

What type of scores will be provided? The Forward Exam is a summative assessment that 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. Each score will fall in one of four levels:

• Advanced – Student demonstrates thorough understanding of and ability to apply the knowledge and skills for their grade level that are associated with college content-readiness.

• Proficient – Student demonstrates adequate understanding of and ability to apply the knowledge and skills for their grade level that are associated with college content-readiness.

• Basic – Student demonstrates partial understanding of and ability to apply the knowledge and skills for their grade level that are associated with college content-readiness.

• Below Basic – Student demonstrates minimal understanding of and ability to apply the knowledge and skills for their grade level that are associated with college content-readiness.

Where can I find sample or practice test questions? An Online Tools Training (OTT) and practice items are available for students at http://dpi.wi.gov/assessment/forward/sample-items. The OTT gives students the opportunity to practice using the tools available on the Forward Exam, as well as allow them to familiarize themselves with the testing platform. The Item Samplers include a sample of the type of content and items students will encounter on the exam. The OTT and Item Samplers are not scored, and do not cover the full range of content on the exam. These are intended to provide examples of items and give students practice taking an online test. For more information contact the Office of Student Assessment at [email protected]

What is the Wisconsin Forward Exam? The Wisconsin Forward Exam is designed to gauge how well students are doing in relation to the Wisconsin Academic Standards. These standards outline what students should know and be able to do in order to be college and career ready. The Forward Exam is administered online in the spring of each school year at: • 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 (EBSR) 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 students during the assessment. In order to develop a comprehensive, holistic essay response, students must draw on basic writing skills while inferring and synthesizing information from the passage. Students have up to 5000 characters to formulate their response.

• Technology‐Enhanced (TE) TE questions allow for a more engaging, interactive assessment. A wide variety of TE questions are present on the Forward Exam including:

• Clock Input • Angle Draw • Short Input • Bar Graph • Number Line

• Coordinate Graph • Line Plot • List • Drag and Drop • Drop‐Down List • Pictograph using Drag and Paste • Circle Graph • Matching • Highlighting Text

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.

What does this mean for my child? The Forward Exam is a summative assessment that gauges your child’s achievement in the content areas tested compared to other students in the state. Along with local measures such as report cards, school-wide assessments, and other information about your child’s progress in school, the results from the Forward Exam provide insight into how well your child is doing on a broad measure of achievement.

What are the test times? The estimated time for test administration in each grade is approximately: • 2 hours and 10 minutes for ELA, • 1 hour and 45 minutes for mathematics, • 1 hour and 20 minutes for science, and • 1 hour and 10 minutes for social studies. These are estimated times, for the purpose of scheduling, as the Forward Exam is not a timed test.

Beyond the Books  

Attention all 5th and 6th grade students! We have a great opportunity for you!   Beyond the Books is a club founded by Kimberly High School students that works to promote role models in the community, while promoting positive educational habits. Every month, the students and the high schoolers are going to read the same book, then do activities that have to do with the book. By doing this activity, we hope to give pre-teens in the community a fun, inspiring, bonding experience that will connect them not only with high schoolers, but students their age as well. All 5th and 6th grade students are welcome, however we ask that they read the book before the meeting.   This month, we are going to be reading 13 Gifts by Wendy Mass, which is the next book in the Willow Falls series. A brief description of the book is listed below.   

“It doesn’t take long for Tara Brennan to realize that breaking into school to steal a goat while wielding a can of pepper spray is not a good idea. As punishment for her misdeed, Tara’s parents send her to the sleepy little town of Willow Falls to stay with relatives she hardly knows, including her eleven-year-old cousin Emily, who, the last time they were together, ate an entire stick of glue. Tara quickly learns that Emily isn’t even remotely the strangest person in town. There’s a boy who sings in the bottom of an empty pool, two best friends who use blackboards to Communicate, and a green-eyed girl who may—or may not—be dating the world’s hottest teen movie star.” 

 The Meeting will take place on Wednesday, March 18th, 3:15-4:15. The meeting will be held at Woodland Intermediate School.   If your son/daughter would like to take advantage of this opportunity, please fill out the form, which is linked below, and all of the corresponding information. The form will close 03/11/20, and we have a limited number of spots, so please fill it out as soon as possible to reserve your spot.  tinyurl.com woodlandbtb  If you have any questions, feel free to contact Kailey Krzoska at [email protected]
