End Of Grade testing

It near the end of the year and my kids class is getting ready for their EOG. Well, in talking to my son (2nd Grade) about his test. He told me that they basically get a JM school Practice, Per-test, and then Test. I'll explain....

I.E.: (he's telling me now) They take a test (this is what they have done in the pass, this year) and look it over. The teacher will cover the exam. They have a Practice Test that they take on a Scan-TRON type of bubble test answer sheet, after which they class will go over the parts everyone missed. Then at the end of the week they will test on it as a pre-test exam. The teacher will work with people that need more help for the test (EOG). Now I don't think they can "pass out" the EOG, but all of these 9-week test they are doing this style of testing. WTF

Man, Why do teachers have to give the kids a pre-exam? Look my kids showed me what his last test was and we talked off of that test. He said that is what he will be doing this week. He can't now because he is at home with the Chicken Pox. I guess that what you get with a No Child is Left Behind Act being unfunded.

Education Systems at Work.
