Second graders take a Math Survey test and a Reading Goals Survey test on the computers in the LMC lab. The tests are Measures of Academic Progress, or better know as the MAP tests. They take these tests three times a year. Once in the Fall(September), Winter (January), and in the Spring, (April and May). Do you take computerized tests at your school?
What kind of clubs do you have at school? We have Running Club and Chess Club. Both of them are held after school.
Do you learn a second language in school? If so, what language is taught? We have a chance to learn another language when we are in 6th grade.
It has been rainy here for the last few days. We have indoor recess on rainy days. Do you have a recess?
We are watching the mail everyday and looking forward to receiving the koala.

We do some computer tests for our Maths and Reading but they're not 'formal' tests, they just give us a score to try to improve on.
We have lots of clubs in Junior School - some are after school, like Chess & Tennis, others are lunchtime clubs, like computer club and art club.
All primary aged children in Australian learn a second language (we call it 'LOTE' - ie "language other than English") We learn German at the moment.
Our recess break lasts for about 20 mins each morning and our lunch break lasts 40 mins. We haven't had many wet play times for a long time!
Hope this answers a few of your questions.
