Yeah. Today we were supposed to start standardized testing. We had this big meeting last week where we found out the revised schedule (testing for 3 hours, 45 minute periods afterwards.) We were strictly told not to plan lessons because the students will be tired from the testing. Today was supposed to be "Sports Day" where we take the kids outside and played sports trivia inside. Tomorrow was "Game Day", etc. It was a big plan and a big deal and everybody had it all worked out.
At 7:30a.m., we got the announcement that we aren't starting standardized testing until TOMORROW, so go ahead and "practice skills" for one more day. Considering we started the morning with not a single teacher having any idea what they were going to do with children all day, I'm just glad we all survived.
