Here’s a radical assertion: When assessing and teaching children, it is time to embrace the whole child. This approach calls for schools, educators, and parents to scrap the deficit model and replace it with the abundance model.
A child’s education should be about more than one test, once a year, in one setting. And yet, it seems that too many schools and districts have lapsed into amnesia — a possible hangover from the No Child Left Behind law.
Let’s sidetrack for a moment to talk about a school seduced by standardized testing and the deficit model that it institutionalized. Students were issued ID cards that showed their standardized testing rank by color. If you had a black card, as a highest test scorer, you received special campus privileges. If you had a white card, as a lowest scorer, you received no privileges, and you stood in a separate cafeteria lunch line.
