We reflected on the language shared by our families and our unique traditions . Our children discussed the great value of good communication and building language for lifelong success. Two years of language proficiency ratings were analyzed by each 2nd- 8th grade bilingual student, and they learned how to set growth goals for the 2024 Spring TELPAS exams coming up in late  \nFebruary. Strategies for each of the four tested domains were reviewed during this time.  \nA special “THANK YOU”goes out to all the staff who h e lp e d m a k e th es e wonderful camps possible for our HMPS students. It was a positive experience f o r a l l o u r s e c o n d language learners.  \nWe love all our students and wish them the best of luck on their exams!!!  \nWriting is an essential skill for all students across all contents. Children are assessed with TELPAS on their ability to communicate clearly and effectively in the English language. They must show their ability tobe descriptive and express themselves through the use of academic language appropriate to their grage level. Providing directions from a map, or explaining a sequence of events drawn from images, are common question types on the TELPAS. Making sure students always communicate with complete thoughts and sentences, show a clear sequence with a beginning, middle, and end to their story, and include as many descriptive details as they can, are key skills to build. Practicing with your  \nchild to retell a story in this manner will help them write in this manner, as well.  \nREMINDER: All test areas are now taken online.  \nStudents will greatly benefit from additional TYPING practice at home.  \nTyping Practice Link: [typing.com](typing.com)  \nParents can access the TELPAS Practice Test online and walk their child through some or all test questions. Chunking a few questions at a time helps the students focus on a few skills at a time. The TELPAS test is not timed and students have the full school day (up to 7 hours)to finish, if needed. Encourage your child to plan their thoughts, and write their answers out, before  \nsubmitting a written or spoken response.  \nPractice Test Link: Texas Assessment ( .gov)  \n[https://www.texasassessment.gov](https://www.texasassessment.gov) › practice-tests  \nSelect the GREEN button: Sign in as a guest.  \nThen, select grade level.  \nSelect:  \nTELPAS Released Test.  \nSelect from the menu:  \n1-Spring 2023 Listening & Speaking Test  \n2-Spring 2023 Reading and Writing Test  \n* Follow the test prompts to begin. The test is not saved and you will need to go through the same steps when you want to continue to practice.  \n**Headsets with a microphone will be needed for the Speaking Practice Test.  \nThe Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) is an annual assessment for emergent bilingual students in grades K-12 . TELPAS assesses English language proficiency in four language domains: listening, speaking, reading, & writing.  \nVisit the web portal designed to provide families with information and resources to ensure the academic success of your bilingual child.  \nVisit the Assessment Resources Section in [TXEL.org](TXEL.org) to find out how to help your child prepare for this assessment.  \nWhy Reading to Your Kids in Your Home Language Will Help Them  \nBecome Better Readers -By Lydia Breiseth  \nAs a parent, you may be wondering whether you should be reading to your children in Spanish or English.
