TAKS Is Over!

Yippee!!! I am so relieved that TAKS testing is finally done for me. These last two days have been very long. The constant walking around the classroom to monitor my students made time drag. I would look at the clock and only 5 minutes had passed. Talk about boring. My feet are suffering for now and I feel worn out. Looking forward the the weekend to recuperate my energy and normal feeling to my feet.

Last Week Before TAKS Testing

This is the last week before the TAKS test for Reading and Math is administered next week.  I am ready to get this testing over with. It has gotten monotonous; doing one math warm up after another. Working on building the students' testing stamina has also gotten tiresome. I can just imagine what it is like for my students if I am overloaded on teaching to the TAKS. This week so far has consisted on working intensely with students in small groups. I'm surprised I haven't started having nightmares about fractions, word problems, or measurement. Thank goodness for that!
