I know my ds is meant to have SATs this week and next week but don't know any more details.
Yesterday and the day before he came home and said they were writing reports on African mammals and African people but that they were able to chat, refer to previous work in their literacy books and look in text books for information. They did it over about 2 days. The teacher was chatting, they were chatting and reading things out.
So is this his writing SATs test or would it happen in a more 'test' like way? I thought that there would be a stricter time limit and that.
I'm asking partly because my ds is so distractible. He was mucking about the whole time in those two days and he said he wrote hardly nothing at all.
I'm not expecting him to do anything great as his writing isn't so good yet unlike my dd who was brilliant at it at this point. But it would be nice to think he had had a calm classroom to try to do it in.
