Should We Take MAP Testing????
A new form of testing, MAP testing was introduced to students in grades 3-5 during the 2005-2006 school year. This year (2006-2007), second grade students will also participate. MAP, or the Measure of Academic Progress, is a computerized adaptive test which helps teachers, parents, and administrators improve learning for all students and make informed decisions to promote a child's academic growth.
When will students be tested and how often?
During the weeks of Aug. 28-Sept. 22, students will participate in several MAP testing sessions to assess Reading, Math, and Science. When taking the MAP test, the difficulty of each question is based on how well a student answers all the previous questions. As the student answers correctly, questions become more difficult. If the student answers incorrectly, the questions become easier. Although the tests are not timed, it usually takes students about one hour to complete each test. Students will repeat the tests two more times during the year, usually Winter and Spring semesters, to continually assess student progress and adapt learning as needed.

Great job! Gets the point across. I didn't see any errors, so you are good on that front. I might have missed some, and if so, your editors and Sam S will catch them.
