I think testing is one of most boring things in life. When we were testing I almost feel asleep during the test. The only thing that testing does for you ois it sees if you are smart a enough for something. I think it does not matter how smart you are for some thing. Here is an example one the presidents did not no how to read ontil he was in 4th grade! Many people in the world might not be able to pass a test but make a change in the world!
Give me your thoughts on what I wrote!
Yes I know why your bored. Yes testing can be very boring in a mathmatical/aljubra sort of way.

Hi Derrick,
I love your observation:
"Many people in the world might not be able to pass a test but make a change in the world!"
I think we should have more than one way to assess students and testing should just be one of many ways to say a student is learning. I think you are learning right here on this weblog! Can you come up with a list of the ways you are learning through writing on a weblog?
Keep up the great writing and learning!
Mrs. Davis

Hey Derrick,
I can relate to this because I'm a senior in high school and I have to take the a test called the SATs. The test measures how smart you are. Some people who are very smart may not be great test takers and they could do very badly. I think that you are right when you said that you don't have to pass a test to change the world. There are many people in this world who try very hard in school but aren't able to pass test. Why do you think that schools have to give test and do you think tests have any good affects?
