If our state standardized test would let them pass on to 6th grade for Lilliputtish math, I would be all for it. But if they fail the test at the end of the year, they're back in my class again next year.

@Iva--Kinda, yeah. It's 36 questions, written by the school district, to prepare them for the test in April.

[Lilliputt]

It's impossible to fail, dear da Crimson butaaaa.... I dunno if they would actually LEARN anything of use. It is more useful on GH than in da real world, you see Oh, well... I'll come and assist you in da class, yes

@Iva
Oh... carrot rum Thank you! *Sips* It tastes just the way I like it *Feels more loose... uh... for a ragdoll *

[Iva]

@Crimson
Are your students 'normal' children? Or could it be that they have missed out on some basic knowledge?

@Lilli
Not too loose though, I don't like pushovers

[Lilliputt]

Ahh... I will turn into a pullover if ya don't watch it

[Crimsonthread]

For the most part, Iva. I have some students with mild learning disabilities, but not many.

[Iva]

@Lilli
Not a bad idea, I'll just wear you, it's cold over here

@Crimson
That's frustrating! Have you talked to other teachers about their experiences?

[Lilliputt]

Sure, go ahead and wear me. I am light enough, da Iva

[Crimsonthread]

Everyone's grading it tonight. I have a feeling that the results are similar in the other classes, though.

[Iva]

@Lilli
Oh... But you will keep me warm, right

@Crimson
That's some comfort, at least it isn't you
How's your house? You have new pic's yet?

[Crimsonthread]

I have a few pictures, but I haven't had a chance to upload them to the computer yet. I'm getting the texture on the walls tomorrow, and my kitchen cabinets/interior doors should be in by Friday.

[Lilliputt]

Ahem... I think it would be a give and take situation, da Iva

@Crimson
I hope ya don't mind us being silly

[Iva]

Yay!! It's almost a real house now!! Are they ahead of schedule?

@Lilli
Isn't it always?

[Crimsonthread]

@Lilli--No, it amuses me. And makes my grading a bit more bearable.

@Iva--I don't think so. I think we're right on target... although I wouldn't mind it slowing down some.

[Lilliputt]

Oh... I am glad we can amuse you, my dear friend

@Iva
Well... I am 85, I can forget ta give at times

[Iva]

That reminds me, have you talked to the.. ehm... mortgage woman yet?

@Lilli
Oh, don't worry, I'll remind you!
