  Case: Unit Assessments
My 1st graders are required to take unit assessments in which data has to be reported to the district. I find these assessment to be very lengthy and complex for 1st graders' developmental levels. Would you all suggest administering parts of the assessment in multiple days to not overwhelm the students?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If you feel that the assessment is too lengthy to be appropriate for your first grade students, I would break up the assessment, but only if you are permitted to do so. If it is a unit assessment created by the district, there may be a policy that prohibits you from doing so. If there are district expectations on how the test is expected to be administered and you have concerns, I would contact your administration or the district to voice your concerns.
