[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teens aren't so cooperative on this sort of thing, but if anyone wants to start ensuring their kid "gets it" for the end-of-year exercise, here are the standards:

So we all have to supplement at home now for this ridiculous decision the state and the district made? Why not just give back our tax money so we can all homeschool.[/quote]

The district didn’t make any decision, its a state requirement.

These silly exams simply place the focus on the test.  If I’m a teacher I’m now focused on making sure kids make me look good (ie to the detriment of more interesting activities). What ever happened to the goal of fostering a love for learning on its own?

So glad my kids are nearly through with this political nonsense.  [/quote]

Or just be sure as a teacher/ teaching team everyone really understands the standards and covers them throughout the course. Ensure the work in the class and quizzes and test gives students an understanding of the depth of knowledge they need and the critical analysis skills that need to be applied. [/quote]
