[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 688762, member: 11832"] :good_morning: from Seattle. Oops, I mean Richmond. We just seem to be having nothing but Seattle weather. Yesterday, I was a protor for my first Standards of Learning exam. My job was to sit with a child whom I will call Abby and record her reading her exam. Sadly, I was only allowed to say to her, "read your screen and continue on." Since the whole thing was on audio recording, I didn't want to "compromise" the test. Abby is an incredibly sweet child, but many, many times during the day she will do a "check in" with me. It consists of the following exchange: A: Am I doing okay? Me: You are doing great! A: No, I am not great, I am cool. Me. Oh, yes! You are cool. A: Do you still love me? Me: Yes, I love you. If her check-in's do not go smoothly, she can deteriorate into a panicky mess. I made certain that she understood that I could not-talk to her during the SOL. When she did her check-in's I flashed her a big grin and a thumbs up. She understood and completed her test beautifully. Today someone will have to give Jack (my one-on-one) the same exam. Considering that the boy has not listened to a word I've said for the past 6 months, I am happy to not be on the hot seat with him. When I work with him, he refuses to even login on his computer. In no universe can I see him completing a test on a computer. My nana's oriental poppy is blooming in the garden. I will have to do a whole flower thread when figure out how to post pictures again. Lil, I'm sendng you some special find a parking space quickly vibes. ~~~~~~~~~~ [/QUOTE]
