Spring Break Week Homework
· There will be no homework this week because of our CRCT on Wednesday through Friday. Instead, if you will please read with your child each night.
Here are some testing tips to help you student do his/her best this week.
1. The night before each testing day, lay out comfortable clothes to avoid arguments over clothing in the morning. I suggest tennis shoes on all 3 days because we take a long recess each day.
2. GO TO BED EARLY!!!!
3. Get up a little bit early to give yourself plenty time to get ready.
4. Eat a healthy breakfast, avoid sugary things.
5. Go to the bathroom before you leave your home.
6. BE ON TIME TO SCHOOL!!! The late bell is at 7:50.
I will have all the pencils sharpened and ready to go for your child.
The best words you can offer each morning are encouraging your child to do his/her best. Listening very carefully to me as I read the directions also helps a great deal. Here is the testing schedule for this week:
Wednesday – reading (50 questions)
Thursday – language arts (60 questions)
Friday – math (70 questions)
We do take a short “wiggle break” in the middle of each section. I read all the questions and answer choices aloud. We do the tests together with the pace set by the teacher. The kids have worked hard and I expect them to do a good job this week!
