“In teaching you cannot see the fruit of a day’s work. It is invisible and remains so, maybe twenty years.”
Jacques Barzun
We are in the middle of our state standardized testing right now. I am not teaching to the test. I am teaching for their futures.
Amen and THANK YOU! I'm so sorry that education has become so strangled by standardized testing, and I'm happy to hear from a teacher who strives to move beyond the test! Keep up the good work and keep the informative posts coming. I no longer teach, but I have four children, and I find your posts helpful. So much so that I'm nominating you for the "Liebster Award". Please see my blog http://juliatomiak.blogspot.com for more details!
