Oh, the things they say

It's been a while, I know...

So today I passed out a math placement test to my 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students--need to find out what textbook they get. I tried to avoid mentioning the "T" word, but eventually it came out. Perhaps that was my bad. After passing the "tests" out, one girl raised her hand and walked up to my desk. "Mr. Hill," she said boldly, with a smile. "We haven't prepared for this test."

Wow. I hope you have. I hope you've been preparing since your first math class a few years ago, or even before that at home.

This could be a long year...
