Testing.....bleh
It is that time again. Time for those pesky end of the year state tests. We have been running toward the finish line and everything else has ceased.
I hate it.
I know I am not alone.
At the end of the day we are all exhausted and just want to go home. This feeling encompasses kids, teachers, cafeteria workers and custodians.
The kids have Spring fever and don't want to work on testing.
I have found a little something that is helpful. Please, feel free to share it with others!
In all seriousness the testing season is horrible for everyone. We are all stressed out and it rolls down hill. It starts at the government and ends up on the shoulders of the poor kids.
Let's try to remember that even though we are being pressured that these are just children. Most are not even old enough to tie their shoes and we are already shouting about standardized testing and graduating high school and college.
I believe that this cartoon sums it up...
