Make Up Day

During the week of standardized tests at my school, the morning announcements mentioned that Friday was “make up day.” Because we have four days of testing, students who miss a test session can make up that section on Friday.

On Thursday, my girly girl student told me how excited she was that tomorrow was Make Up Day! I was confused, because she didn’t need to make up any tests, and then I realized that she thought it was a special day to wear make up to school. Lipstick, eye shadow, blush… quite a theme day for an elementary school!
