Well, here they are. Testing times grade to grade in Ohio.
Less? In most cases.
Still problematic? Definitely. We have only to look to the increase in testing for 3rd graders because someone in the Ohio Department of Education believes that 3 hours of testing for an 8 year old is appropriate. At least they're allowed to split it into two 1.5 hour sessions.
Hey Legislators. Find an 8 year old. Make him sit still for an hour and a half.
In my personal experience, it has been difficult to get some 15 year olds to maintain focus on graduation tests for that length of time.
Then again, what do I know? I'm just a teacher, not a legislator.
