Our states that do standardized testing have a 3rd rail. They score students: advanced, proficient, basic or below basic on a test regardless of individual circumstances. Is this giving what students truly need?

U4.3 Delegate tasks in your classroom to students who enjoy helping. When kids are entrusted with jobs that are essential to your daily routines, students become much more invested and you no longer have to be the project manager for every simple task. #MitchellFewerThingsBetter
U4.2 Release yourself from any thinking which implies you are lazy, wasteful, or self-indulgent if you don’t try to do everything yourself. We hire a HS boy to mow our lawn, and as simple as that seems, it’s relieved a lot of our stress. #MitchellFewerThingsBetter
