What Can We Do When We Finish The Test?

At the end of the day, I reminded my students that the state testing starts next week. "Can we read a book when we're done with the AIMS?" "Sorry, but they won't let you do that." "Can we talk quietly?" "Sorry, but they won't let you do that." "Can we draw?" "Sorry, but they won't let you do that." "Can we blog?" "Sorry, but they won't let you do that." "Can we think?" "Sorry, but they won't let you do that." I didn't mean to say it. It just sort-of slipped out. But looking back on it, I think I was telling the truth.
