My juniors spent three-fourths of their day on Tues./Wed. taking the Arkansas End-of-Level Literacy Exam. Lots of reading, reflecting, and writing.
When given the opportunity to reflect on the exam the day following the test’s administration, one student sums up her thoughts in this Wordle graphic display.
The first word that jumped out at me was easy.
Then I noticed the word thought. This makes the teacher feel better! For weeks, I had been doing by absolute best to persuade my students to just try…”if you will just try, you will score proficient on this test.” This equates to checking and re-checking their work and just taking the test seriously.
Then I noticed the word proficient. Yes!
Now we wait to mid-summer for the results…with the confidence of knowing they scored proficient!
