Date: 2016-02-20 03:51 pm (UTC)Our school starts testing next week. I've already emailed the link to my principal, with the suggestion that each teacher cut short the class before their testing period, and take the kids out on the playground for 15 minutes. Simple idea, easy to implement, and it seems almost obvious. Of course the kids will do better with a break, rather than going directly from sitting in a math class to sitting in the exam room!
Thanks for passing on the link.
