MCAS woes x 2
1) From KS
Ok, well I’m bored and MCAS is making me even more bored. Ok well IM REALLY STRESSED because MCAS is tomorrow. Tomorrow is Friday and today is Thursday. My friend who is right next to me is also really nervous. I was told that I scored extremely high in the MCAS last year and it was higher then normal grades I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean. I usually get high grades. I feel as if I’m a normal girl. Well back to the story. MCAS IS TOMORROW. Hopefully I will get high grades again. That would probably make me pass the 6th grade. The MCAS is on reading. I’m probably going to pass it cause I could read since I was around 5 years old. But math on the other hand… Not good. I have pretty bad grades and always get in trouble because I don’t usually do good on my math homework.
Well, I’m kinda excited for the MCAS cause for once it would be something different then normal things like work work work and the same thing we usually do all day.
Well this is 6th grade. First year of middle school. And that makes me A lot more nervous because that sounds so much more harder then…5th grade…And it should be more harder during the MCAS.

The MCAS was so boring all week you have to sit there and read and do multiple choice and open response questions. One good thing is if someone didn’t eat breakfast the school gives you breakfast. They give it to you so you can get your brain power working and you can get it for free because you would do good work. We have to always take our time. The bad thing they make you do after is they make you read after you already were reading all day. They should let you sleep for like the whole day and we should go out for free time for like an hour and be with our friends. That is why the MCAS is boring to most people. Most people take two hours or less to do the MCAS.

What happens if you do well or if you do badly on the tests? When do you even find out?
Have you been through this before?

Well, ajehelen, If you do badly on the test, it’s no big deal, really. They don’t hold you back for flunking the MCAS until high shool.
You usually find out during the summer or in the next school year.
And, yes, I’ve been through it before.

Also, I think the MCAS is pointless. Basically, it takes a bunch of stuff we already know and glue them together into some kind of educational Frankenstein. AND it waists paper! Save the rain forest, stop the MCAS!!!
