A student who is well rested, well fed, and has a positive attitude is best prepared for testing. You can help your student do his or her best by considering these tips:
Make sure your student is in school and on time on test days. Reschedule dentist appointments and other out-of-school time for non-testing days.
Make sure your student gets a good night’s sleep and eats a healthy breakfast before each day of testing.
Remind your student that these tests are only one part of the school day. Emphasize that you have confidence in his or her ability to do the best job possible!
Remind your student to listen carefully to the directions and to each question as it is read aloud during testing. Encourage your student to ask the teacher for help if he or she does not understand the directions.
