Yes I do things like running records and formative assessments as well obviously but no, this is a "number 2 pencil" kind of drill - no differentiation - and I really felt against it but the school wants to measure where the students are achieving. It seems very un-PYP to me but as I'm still new to it all I just wanted to make sure I wasn't really off the mark.

Early Years Standardized Tests in PYP Schools?
Hi all,
I am a kindergarten teacher (age 5-6) and my school is requiring that our students complete a standardized test for language to score reading, writing, speaking and listening.
I am wondering if this is common practice for students this young in other international schools? Seems a bit much to me.
