Yes, they had these tests in ancient times but they were probably scored with a grid - very untechy.<BR/><BR/>Love, GrandmaInner Elderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13119918009359524807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111228953718918006.post-33976218552136817662009-03-25T15:23:00.000-04:002009-03-25T15:23:00.000-04:00Links, Honey, links!!!

I guess it was necessary, since teachers don't have the time, after the test, to check to make sure dozens of test sheets are computer ready -- but SHEESH!<BR/><BR/>We're doing CATs soon, too. It just seems like the simplest route.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06932060902413958983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111228953718918006.post-47462788537851661822009-03-25T10:19:00.000-04:002009-03-25T10:19:00.000-04:00Hahahah....oh, that was a good post. I like #334, ...Hahahah....oh, that was a good post. I like #334, too. Wow, testing. That is uncharted territory. I think in ND we test 3 times, and I think the first is after 3rd grade. I'll probably have to look into that....in a while.<BR/>We've had a funny couple of days in our schoolwork. I initially thought homeschooling would emancipate my children from worksheets! But, for the past few days, they have asked, "Mom, print me out a worksheet!" But, if it delights them, we're going to direct ourselves that way.<BR/>Thanks for your friendship in the blogosphere!<BR/>LauraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111228953718918006.post-62220725170936242372009-03-25T09:13:00.000-04:002009-03-25T09:13:00.000-04:00I feel a littel guilty that we don't have to test....I feel a littel guilty that we don't have to test. And I'm feeling a little worried - did the first aid instructor have to teach K how to fill in the bubbles last week when she did her babysitter's course?!??Bonnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12823321141183113841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111228953718918006.post-15851832330989215632009-03-25T08:41:00.000-04:002009-03-25T08:41:00.000-04:00Oh, wow.

(I know now my mom probably just needed someone to watch me.) I remember my grandmother having me go over tests to be sure bubbles were filled in all the way. ;) Thinking back on that now, I can't see how I was allowed to do that, but it happened regardless. I graded math papers for her, too.Kerianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03567758475158367189noreply@blogger.com
