The Battle Cry of the Assessment-Stressed Teacher
© Cindy Middendorf 2007
Mine eyes have seen the story of
No Child Left Behind,
We test them and assess them and
We know what we will find…
That kids are different; tests are not,
And that just boggles our mind,
BUT THE TEST GOES MARCHING ON!
Glory, Glory and God Bless You,
Now sit down and let me test me.
Kids and teachers feel the stress,
No more play and no recess,
BUT THE TEST GOES MARCHING ON!
