  1. SCHEDULE • Lunch Schedule; Different Lunch Duty Assignments • Room Relocations • K Hall-Overflow Rooms (Library if needed) • Some of you do not have an additional administrator in your room at the end of the day. • H hall-No Bathroom Relief 12:15-12:45

  2. The Evolution of the Teacher Hero THEY already know about you and your powers. The state continues to increase its focus on test security. YOU will be a major part of that focus.

  3. THEY want to put a stop to your evolution as a hero • New Oaths for you and students • Student Honor Statements • Floating TEA Monitors • Seating Charts (original room & UFTs)

  4. TEACHER OATH Pretest and Posttest • Sign first section after training • Sign second after administering test • It is a LEGAL document. It is actionable by the district or state. • By signing this oath you accept the consequences should you fail to adhere to restrictions laid out for you.

  5. STUDENT OATH • See packet for example. • This is not state, but district mandated. • Students should initial, sign, and hand back to you. Keep them in the box. • If a student refuses to sign it, let them take the test, but refer to principal’s office after the test.

  6. Student Honor Statements • Manual addresses prompting 9th: page 49 10th: page 51 11th: page 61 TAKS-M: none • You do not need to check to make sure they sign it.

  7. On-site Monitoring • Independent test monitors from TEA will conduct visits throughout the year • These visits will be unannounced and random.

  8. Seating Charts • Will be provided in box • Fill out only when both monitors are in room OR before you hand out test materials • Seat them alphabetically; hand out booklets numerically (post-it notes will be included; but remember that they are not as reliable as your roster)

  9. Teacher Power #1: Omnipotence • No one is to view test contents before, during or after administration. • Testing procedures as outlined in the manual must be followed. • Secure materials cannot be duplicated except for writing sample. • No one may review student responses except in the course of “transcribing”

  10. THEY will know you only when you make mistakes BIG mistakes to Avoid: • Viewing a test before, during or after an assessment • Scoring students’ tests • Discussing secure test content or student responses • Duplicating secure material without TEA authorization

  11. The Book on Evolution DO NOT read “Completing Student Identification Information” Your TAKS Manual (TAKS & TAKS-A get the same directions) 9th: Start directions on page 48 10th: Start directions on page 50 11th: Start directions on page 60 Your TAKS-M Manual 9th: Start directions on page 47 10th: Start directions on page 62 11th: Start directions on page 98

  12. Protect Yourself from THEM • Bring your manual. • Get your box from A118 by 8:30 am. Count everything and sign out. • Seat students in alphabetical order; can fill out seating chart early if you want! • Send kids with questions to Hall monitors. • Kids cannot bring ANYTHING into the testing room except pencils and a book to read after the test. • Keep box with you at all times.

  13. Teacher Power #2: Predict the Future • Do not accept students not on your list. • Students bring nothing with them. If they do bring a cell phone and turn it in, put name on post-it note and put in box. Return it at end of test. If student is a UFT, take cell phone to Amy in main office. • Students must sign oath; if they do not, let them take test, but they are referred to principal afterward. • Attendance: 3 sheets • Pass out answer documents and booklets. • Remind students: Do not mark ANYTHING on ANYTHING until I tell you!

  14. So… You Already Know • Tell students to check I.D. information (on sticker or penciled in). Do not say PEIMS or SS# or name. • If they say PEIMS or Name is wrong, we have to give them a NEW answer document (hall monitor), unless information is penciled in. • Anything else wrong? Mark it with a post-it note.

  15. Your Predictions Will Come True • No scratch paper; students write in booklet. • Pass out highlighters and pencils. Watch for massive highlighter marks. • Watch for pens! • Begin test as soon as you are ready. • Be an active monitor (watch their hands-LHS example)!

  16. Teacher Power #3:Unbelievable Physical Prowess • Carrying the heavy box • Being an active monitor It is NECESSARY to actively monitor the students while testing: ACTIVE MONITORING is moving about the classroom, observing student behavior and testing procedures. ACTIVE MONITORING is NOT using the computer, reading a book or magazine, using a cell phone, grading papers, etc.

  17. Physical Prowess=Endurance Dictionaries (1 for every 5 students) Thesaurus (1 in every box) 9th: Can use them the whole time 10th & 11th: Use only on 1st section; Cannot use during 2nd section (revising & editing). Once student has opened 2nd section, remove name post-it from desk (you can throw them away). • Make ‘em raise their hand to start 2nd section. • Cannot use their own dictionaries • Same for all tests (TAKS, TAKS-A, TAKS-M)

  18. Physical Prowess=Stamina • QUESTIONS: “I can’t answer that for you; just do the best you can.” • BATHROOM: Use blue pass. Only one student at a time. • SNACKS: We’ll bring them in. Ans docs inside test booklets and MONITOR what they are saying. • NURSE: Only in emergencies. Notify students that if they leave, they can’t finish the test. We have to escort them. • FIRE: Put answer documents in booklets, and leave them on desks. Students exit building and do not discuss test (try to monitor OR keep them quiet).

  19. Teacher Power #4: Ability to Read Minds After a student is done: • Pick up test. Glance to see that answers are marked on answer document. • Put by box. Continue watching students. • Once partner comes in, then bubble S=Score or A=Absent, check form # & bubble E for English, and then ans docs inside booklets, & put in numerical order.

  20. So What Are They Thinking? 9th 11:30: UFT (Unfinished Test Takers) answer documents & test booklets together; Bathroom Relief (BR) relocate students to K201. Do not bring dictionaries. 10th & 11th 12:30: Ask UFTs if they can finish by 12:45. If they can, leave them in room. If not-UFT answer documents and test booklets together; one administrator OR Bathroom Relief takes them to relocation rooms.

  21. Only You Should Hear Their Thoughts • Students DO NOT talk until UFTs have left. UFTs DO NOT look at anything or do anything else until they are completely done with the test. Make a note of UFTs on Stay in Box attendance sheet. • Turn in box to Hall monitor. Make sure you are aware of your numbers. • UFT Rooms (K hall, 11:30 and after; teachers help them get settled!): Teachers bring in the kids WITH UFT sheets. Keep track of students using these sheets.
