Starting state testing for English Learners today.

Students who place out of services receive nothing and lose accommodations on state graduation tests.

Bonus in their eyes: they get to miss class and be with their friends for the testing.

Shockingly, it is not always easy to motivate students to do their best.

#AdultESL #BasicEnglish class (that I teach) went well today.

#Spanish class (in which I am a student) is going well, but it is a lot of work. (#FlippedClassroom)

#StateTesting starts next week in my Mon-Fri #k12 job.

I'm going to be exhausted well before the end of May, I'm sure.

Normally, I teach Basic English is the summer, too, but not this summer. Taking the full 2 months off.
