AIMS week coming

This upcoming week is AIMS testing at school. It's a low pressure week for me and a high pressure week for students. That means that students are just a little more uptight, a little more frustrated, and coincidentally, they tend to be just a little more touchy, which results in a higher level of talking back.

My goal this week is to be a calming balm for my students, to inspire them to work harder and believe in themselves. I of all people understand how frustrating and stressful standardized testing can be.
