My ode to the
WASL :
F YOU!!!!!
Short and sweet no??
I hate this test. Yes I used the word hate...so sue me. They base the entire years cirriculum around these tests. They teach to the tests. That is not fair to the kids and their future in my opinion.
Which brings me to post about MAW.
Anyway my oldest is stressing out over the test and getting good scores etc. He does not handle things like that well. I almost bet there will be some sort of outburst from him this week. I contacted his counselor to give him the heads up about his stress level.
My middle son is so excited because this is his first year and he loves tests and challenges like this etc. However if he does not do well it will crush him.
