This week in school we are taking a whole bunch of tests, and they're not just any kind of tests, they're STAR TESTS!!! EEEEK! the STAR stands for: Standardized Testing And Reporting...
Pretty simple, but we have to take Language Arts AND Math star tests! 2 days of Language Arts and 2 days of Math, for the first 2 days we take Language Arts, and the last two days, obviously, Math. Today (April 19th) was the first day of star tests, and we had to answer 37 questions. This is how it works: you read a passage with a couple hundred words and answer about 6 questions about that passage, and my class had 37 questions that we had to answer this morning. But the up side to all this is that you only have to do it once a year, and that my teacher gives us mints before we start.
