Tests!

So someone has been whining that there haven't been enough blog updates (read: YOUNGER BROTHER) so I guess I can post something.

As the semester is winding down, there have been a plethora of tests for my kids.  Last Thursday we had a Daejeon-wide English test, and yesterday and today at our school we have had read/speaking tests for 5th and 6th graders.  Tomorrow is the big end of the year test for EVERY subject, which means I'll have no classes.

Most of my kids are giving me what I expect of them, and some of them are even exceeding expectations, which is nice.  The weirdest part is that as of right now, my worst classes are actually the ones that are testing the best. I'll take it though, because my favorite kids in all my classes are still doing well.

The sucky part about this now, is that after tomorrow, 6th grade will have no reason whatsoever to do anything. The kids that come to class to actually learn will still be awesome, obviously.  The kids that come to pass the test, that's a different story.  These are the last tests of the year.  The main portion of winter vacation doesn't start until after Christmas.  Plus there are an additional two weeks of class during February.  Those two weeks in February are going to be especially hellish, as they already know what middle schools they are going to, and will pretty much be acting like middle schoolers.

We'll just see what happens, I guess.  All I know is that the only work I will have tomorrow is grading English tests in the afternoon.  I will have absolutely nothing to do all morning.  What does that mean?  Tonight's gonna be a good night.
