testing
By Jami

Clip to ScrapBook   
I think testing four year olds is inappropriate. I have taught 3 and 4 year olds, and I could never picture testing them! Testing them on what?? Colors? Numbers? How they played in the sand table? That is developmentally inappropriate. Tax dollars should not be a reason for testing young children. They will get plenty of testing when they reach elementary school. I just do not agree with testing at all.
