D-DAY

Classroom testing, in my opinion, is wasted time and gives you meaningless information.  With all things being even, which they aren't, it MIGHT be helpful to know where to start with sharing information for children to learn.  That would be helpful not the wanted end result.  Tests have a tendency to tell you what a person DOESN'T know, not what they DO know.

ALL PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT WITH DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES, AND LEARN AT DIFFERENT RATES.

With that in mind, I have volunteered to proctor at my local elementary school for the FCAT, which starts today.  Interesting, if not enjoyable.  I don't know if I'm ready to be back in a classroom setting or not.  We'll see.  I haven't been there before today so I this is a new experience for me.  It's like my first day of school.  Wow.  I hope I can find the bathroom.
