Not what you think. He's not in trouble (not at home anyway!). As a third grade teacher, he is charged with starting his students on their long journey through test-taking land. Third graders are the first victims in Virginia's Standards of Learning (SOL) tests. They are tested in language arts (reading and writing), math, science and social studies.
At this point, I don't know who is stressed more: the students or their teacher! Don't worry Honey. You did your job and did it well. The rest is up to your kids! Hang in there...3 weeks to go!!

The Third Grade Journey with the wonderful Mr. R has much more to offer than SOL success. Test scores will never overshadow the memories that last a lifetime.
Mr. R's students were so lucky to have him as a teacher. No standardized test can assess all the things they learned in his room.
