They are basically teaching to a stupid test, even if the state says that is not is what is happening. The kids are shutting down, as are the teachers, and complaints are falling on deaf ears. It is the biggest and saddest joke in education. I hate standardize testing. Hannah is now in a private school where she doesn't have to deal with it, but Melanie and Christie still do.<BR/><BR/>It is the worse idea ever and the state keeps adding more and more with each grade.<BR/>XOXOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35506205.post-59662590290042606642008-02-17T13:50:00.000-05:002008-02-17T13:50:00.000-05:00Try watching a class full of eight and nine year o...Try watching a class full of eight and nine year olds spend five days testing and convincing them that it's not that big a deal. I'm with Carrie here - there is no way to be okay with what's being done to our kids in the name of not leaving any behind.<BR/><BR/>So glad Cadence has you!Deb Shuckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03439395710731341021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35506205.post-80855710967734952862008-02-16T09:20:00.000-05:002008-02-16T09:20:00.000-05:00You do NOT want me to get started on standardized ...You do NOT want me to get started on standardized testing. Key-rist! Since when are we hoping to make kids, teaching and education f'ing STANDARD?????<BR/><BR/>You've pushed one of my deepest buttons.
