I have my child's MAP scores. What do I do now?

When looking at your child’s Goal Setting Worksheet, notice that the bolded RIT Range score is the student’s area of strength and the italicized RIT Range score is the possible area of concern. The Goal Strand with the italicized RIT Range score is your student’s goal to work on. Here is how you can work on it at home:

1. Go to Rancho’s website: www.ranchoschool.org

2. On the right-hand side, you will see many resources to help your child at home. Click on “MAP Reading Skills for Students” (see attached pages for steps).

3. Find the Goal Strand section and click on the range that your child’s RIT Range score falls in.

4. Choose an activity and have fun! Be sure to try them all.

Other resources that can help improve your child’s academic performance can be found on Rancho’s website. From Rancho’s website, try:

In this week's Friday Folder, you'll find a Home Activity Chart. When you do these activities, write them on your chart and turn them in at the end of the month for an Eagle Card!
