FCAT

Tuesday, March 18, 2008

Today is the last day of FCAT! FCAT stands for Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test. If you ask Anuhea (who was just joking about it the other day), then she'll say FCAT stands for Florida Child Abuse Test. :) We had a good laugh about that one.

All 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders (and students in higher grades) need to take the test so that includes Anuhea and Nalani. They have been taking the tests for a week now.

I think the girls will be glad the tests are over, but they'll miss not having to do homework every day. Because of the testing, they haven't had homework for a whole week! Luckily, they'll be having Spring Break soon and shouldn't have any homework then. This is so unlike school in Taiwan where they think the breaks give you more time to do homework so they pile it on.
