Frequent testing - even if we use a fancy euphemism like "formative assessment" - is, as the late Ted Sizer put it, like ruining a cake by opening the oven door repeatedly to check on it. (An imperfect analogy, though, b/c tests aren't even reliable indicators of learning.)

Mrs V. came in and taught us all about predicting with Predicting Panda & a great book called The Empty Pot. We even got turns holding her crystal ball as we made smart predictions! @CVeneziale55 @LMTSD_PRES #lionpride 🐼
