It wasn’t half bad…

As it turns out, administering the CST’s wasn’t half bad. It was a bit complicated, but not bad.

What was so complicated about it you ask?

Well, as you know if you’ve been reading this blog, I have four grade levels in my classroom: 2nd- 5th grade, 7 years old through 12 years old. What that means when it comes to administering the test is that up to four people will be in my classroom administering the test. Even though I have two assistants, they are only allowed to proctor the test, not administer it. So, two subs had to be hired to administer the other grade levels.

I administered the CAPA (more about that later), while Mr. I administered the test for 3rd and 5th grade, while Mr. O administered the test for 4th grade. There would have been a separate administrator for 2nd grade, but one of my 2nd graders took the CAPA, while another was taken to another class to have the test administered in Spanish (I think???).

Yeah! Confusing. I know. Imagine the pandemonium in my class before things settled down.

Imagine if I had to try to administer all grade levels!!!
Thank goodness I didn’t have to.
