4/30/2019 0 Comments It's that time of year!It's here....the SOLs. We have been on all of our field trips, we have learned just about everything we need to learn, and now the testing begins. Let me assure you that I don't enjoy them anymore than the children (or YOU) do, but we have no choice. I am trying my best not be make it a stressful time. I award the children with yoga stretching (which we do all year!) cookies, extra recess, ice pops, and other treats for completing their assignments. I also gave the assignments out very early and encourage the children to work ahead when they can...just in case they are busy a few nights. We are reviewing the assignments together...asking questions...clarifying thoughts and ideas....and completing class assignments that go along with the binder work. I am doing everything I can to help the children succeed. Of course, I always have a few that forget to do their work...more than once.
I will tell you that I have never had a child fail an SOL! I also let the children know that I KNOW they will succeed as well!
