I was hallway monitor as well last year for the EOGs!! I figured that if my daughters had to be excruciatingly bored during the testing, then I would suffer along with them. It was dreadful. The children were not allowed to read or play when they were finished with the test but were forced to sit quietly until the whole class was done. Three hours of utter silence and boredom!! Ugh.
I tell my two that the testing is NOT about them, but a test to show if the teacher is doing a good job of teaching the material. So far mine have not become stressed by the EOGs, just irritated with the process.
