Hooray for Diffendoofer Day
BCES Georgia Milestones testing begins on May 2nd. Mrs. Catherine Cox, 3rd grade teacher, read her classes a story "Hooray for Diffendoofer Day!" by Dr. Seuss, to help her students stay calm and rest assured that they are prepared and have the tools they need to be successful! The story celebrates the uniqueness of young students in school, and tells a story of how teachers prepare their students all year giving them skills and strategies to do their best. On test day the students begin with a feeling of sadness and worry, but as they start the test they realize their teacher was right, they were prepared! The students loved the story!
