If At First You Don’t Succeed, Lower Your Standards

The Florida Department of Education lowered the performance level standard on a state writing exam after only 27 percent of fourth graders passed. Fourth grade teachers say the test inadequately reflected their pupils’ writing abilities. They say the main reason the students did poorly was the test question was too hard. According to the Florida Department of Education, the prompt, or essay topic, for fourth graders in the state of Florida this year was, “Suppose you or someone else had a chance to ride a camel.
