[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They wouldn’t know in January. The first quarter is team building and assessments. The second quarter is finally when new learning really kicks in, but we are still in Q2 in January. No grade could discern who is most in need for summer at that point. [/quote] Wasting an entire quarter on team building and assessments is absurd. [/quote] We need baseline assessments to judge progress against for the rest of the year. I truly don’t understand how you think we can measure a child’s growth if we don’t know where they begin. [/quote] A test takes a school period. A comprehensive test for all subjects should take less than a school day. What's going on the remaining >44 days?[/quote] The first quarter is not all team building and assessing. New learning happens in quarter one. ES Teacher[/quote]
