Today after school L was waiting for one of our neighbor's college psychology students to come over and give her a test, a really long psychology test. L was home from school at 3 p.m. and kept looking out the window until the young woman arrived around 4:30 p.m. The testing and interviewing took almost five hours. L is easily distracted, though, so that could have been part of the reason it took so long. She vaguely recalled any of the questions - "I had to draw lines through animals." When I asked why, she said she didn't know. The students do the testing as a class assignment and we agree never to see the results. Since students, rather than professionals, are doing the testing, the results can't be considered accurate so they're not shared with us. I was proud L sat through the long test.
E and B were tested by two of his students last year and couldn't be retested this year because of "test recall." Hmm. That was fine with E, who worked a school dance as a member of the student council, and with B, who had a playdate after school that turned into a pizza dinner.
