A 9 year old child writing an ‘open’ letter on behalf of the class after a prolonged period of standardised testing in New York State. They want their voices heard and have asked if we can help them to do this.
This is not ‘our’ blog, so we shall write no more. This blog post belongs to the voice of this child and their class.
