[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a preschool teacher. The administration is primarily interested in having us assess the kids and enter data. Also, most teachers don't take the kids out to play when it's below 50 degrees, even though we can go out down to 25. [/quote] Because I actually care about the children, I fake pretty much all the assessments and spend my time with, you know, the kids instead. And I go out right down to the 25 degree limit. Some classrooms, though, don't see outdoors between October and March. [/quote] I think you'd be better off finding a school whose philosophy of testing aligns with your own. Faking your job is its own dirty secret.[/quote] Nope. Everyone's doing it because you'd literally have to spend 4 hours a night (yes, we've done the math) every day of the school year to get it done the way they'd prefer. None of the information is valid, too, whether you do it the way they'd like or not. We literally answer questions like whether the kids can grip balls of 3", 6", and 9" in diameter with their non-dominant hands. Imagine that x 1200 questions (30 questions x 40 students, 3x a year) and you have our assessments.[/quote]
