Can you explain to me on the assessment sheet why and when do the teachers circle the M S V. I notice that they seem to write these three letters when there is a mistake but sometimes they don't circle all three letters and they only seem to count the letters that they circle. Any help you can give me I appreciate. Pat Kimathi On Mar 26, 2014, at 11:12 AM, Laura Rieben <[email protected]> wrote:
