How to Start the K5 Learning Reading and Math Assessments

We’ve had some questions recently from trial customers about our assessment process, so we thought it a good idea to write about it.  Today, we continue our series on the K5 Learning reading and math assessments with part 2 – how students start the assessments. 

Part 2: how to start our reading and math assessments.

By now, you will have received an email from us saying that the reading and/or math assessments for your child have been set up. 

Start by logging your child in.  Make sure your parent account is logged out first.

4 Important Tips for the Assessments

We’d like to leave you with a few tips for your child and you in doing the assessment. 

Don’t help your child with the answers
Some questions are supposed to be ‘too hard’. That’s how the assessment works.

Keep your child focused
The assessment is far longer (25-40 minutes) and far more challenging than a normal lesson. Don’t let your child start clicking through pages without trying his best.

Take a break anytime
Just click on the “X” in the right corner. When the student resumes, even days later, the assessment will automatically restart where the student stopped.

Do the Reading and Math Assessments Separately
It’s too much to do all at one sitting.
