Today I took an exam I don’t think I did very well at it – usually these computer based ones give you a mark straight away, but because this one is in beta, it just told me I’d get a letter in 6-8 weeks.

For starters, despite the advised time being 4 hours and the number of questions 160, I actually got 4 1/2 hours and 153 questions. Seemed like big changes even if it is in beta. There were comments forms on the questions, and I made some comments but wasn’t really sure what they were asking for. And I had to drive 35 miles to sit it, but at least I could go after the rush hour.

Small did some letter work with Tim and Big, but he still isn’t actually recognising which letter goes with which sound, despite us being told that he does at school. Not quite sure why that knowledge isn’t transferring home, and he’s quite frustrated with it all at the moment.

Dunno what Big did, apart from wear the new clothes I bought for her.

  3. Hi Jax,
    any luck with the ring code for wordpress? I’ve got one from Deb that seems to be working just fine. Is there something simple to transfer into the early years one that i can DIY, or shall I hold fire on that?
    Also, call me a novice … but what is a click compared to a hit? I know you will know this answer! I’m intrigued because I have 0 clicks since my nav code has been only partly working. I’m intrigued.
    Cheers
