[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The test is COGAT. [b]Do they also have to write an essay[/b]? How long is the test for MS?[/quote] I am currently involved with an ES with majority low income, mostly URMs students and it is absolutely shocking how they do not know how to read and write even when they are in 2nd and 3rd grade. I am not able to understand why that is? These students have been in the pre-K, K and early ES grades in MCPS from the start. Why are they lagging behind? [/quote] Home life. A lot of the kids have issues at home, and they bring those issues to school. Teachers spend time being mommy/daddy/therapist in school. Despite what people think, practicing things like reading, writing, math at home is essential, even if it's just a few minutes, but too many kids don't do this at home.[/quote]
