Hmmm...the joys of standardized testing. (AND AN INVITATION TO ALICE'S AMAZING ASTRONOMICAL Q/A POST...)
I sit in my classroom and it is completely silent except for the tick tock of the clock and sound of #2 pencils scribbling in circles on an official UBSCT answer sheet. This is pretty much bliss to me as a teacher because I can peruse the Internet and have a zero stress hour. For the seven of my students who are taking the test, it is a different story. This is the math portion of the Utah Basic Skills Competency Test and for most of my students, they would rather have their eyes removed with a dirty spoon than have to answer math questions. Poor souls. One student asked if he could go talk to the counselor right at the beginning of the test and I had a hard time saying no because of the look of fear and hate for testing in his eyes.
So, what are you wondering about Alice these days? Any questions? I think I should do a question and answer blog. I know I am not famous but I am sure there are things you are wondering about. Comment with some questions or email me: softballrita@gmail.com
I really have been struggling with things to say on my blog so I thought it might be fun to answer your questions. Please do not disappoint me. If you are reading this blog, whether you are a friend or foe, leave a comment with a curious question about Alice. The deadline for questions are Friday at 5:46 p.m Mountain Standard Time. Thank you for participating and you could win a new car. Their will be a drawing at 5:47 on Friday! Get those questions in Friends and Foes!
Back to the curious silence!
