We don't write a lot of essays around here...
Thursday, May 22, 2014 at 02:37PM So. This morning I was working on some math with the younger two...doing some review work before moving forward again. I had printed out a couple of practice tests and was having them work through them, explaining to them that I do this because I wanted them to have at least some experience with test taking and to learn the importance of reading the instructions rather than just having me talk them through it. All good, right? Right.
So then Micah starts asking about what other tests might look like and we somehow got on the subject of essays.
He looked at me. Puzzled.
"What's that?" he asked. I explained about grouping paragraphs together and some such stuff.
Still puzzled. "But. What's it stand for?"
Bafflement. "Huh?"
"You know. What's S.A. stand for?"
As I was trying to collect myself and stop laughing, Asher offered up that it stands for "Student Awesomeness."
Guess we'll be working on Student Awesomeness this fall... ;)
