These first days of the ELA PARCC test haven't been too bad from a technical standpoint. It all has been a learning experience for everyone. In my classroom, the tests have started pretty much on time and the children seem to be able to maneuver the computers pretty well. After the test, some students thought that it was "easy". Hopefully, this version of "easy" that they speak of translates into "easy-and they know the answers" vs "easy-and they don't know the answers." You never can tell with Middle School students.
Tomorrow is the last day of ELA testing and I am going to be happy to resume regular class schedules for a week. Next Thursday and Friday will be the beginning of the 6th grade Math test so I will have a week to teach and review past concepts.
