My Least Favorite Part...
of the school year has got to be the dreaded Standardized Testing. Virginia offers several different ways to show that our homeschooling is progressing, including portfolios and testing. And since right now, I'm having a hard time remembering where I put my purse, trying to keep track of a full school year's worth of material to put into a portfolio seems highly unlikely.
So, testing it is.
We started yesterday, and both kids finished several sections, and then we finished up today.
Calvin thought the whole thing was sorta fun -- I guess it was better than listening to Mommy read about Immigration in American History. And Hobbes was just annoyed that his 4th grade level test was longer than his brother's 1st grade test.
Testing just makes me tense. I know that no matter how hard we've worked this year, there will always be some silly little thing that we didn't cover, or something easy that one of the boys simply forgets. I know that they're learning and progressing just fine -- and the most important part -- they still like learning new things.
Anyway, big sigh of relief that I don't have to do this for another year. |
