The dreaded test
Taks. Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills. My poor 3rd graders have been working so hard all year for this test. I think they are a little psyched out--get a good nights rest, eat a good breakfast, get to school on time. So much emphasis on this test and this is just the reading part. Math is still to come later. Since my kids are in the dyslexia program, they will take the test over 2 days instead of one. I'm just thinking of them today....(praying for them!)

I agree - too much hype! Jacob was pacing last night! And worried sick. Hope your girls were able to take it all in stride.
Sorry that was me - Meredith (not Derek). I forgot to change the google account! Sorry :).
Oh gosh, I remember taking these tests in elementary school. Yuck, no fun at all. I'll say a little prayer that your girls will be calm and do well during the 2 days of testing.
