Chances are good that your child will be taking one form or another standardized test during the school year. Whether it be DSTP, Terra-Nova, SATs, or general placement tests, this situation is bound to arise at least once. Here are some tips to help your child get ready.<\/p>\n
If your child seems nervous or anxious, ask the teacher for some relaxation tips or implement some that you already know.<\/p>\n
Try not to plan any appointments on testing days and make sure your child is present. Having to deal with make up dates can be stressful.<\/p>\n
Tell your child to listen carefully to the test-taking directions and ask any questions before testing begins.<\/p>\n
Be sure that your child is well-rested and gets a good night’s sleep prior to test days.<\/p>\n
See that your child eats his\/her normal breakfast on test days. Hunger can cause poor performance. Brain and body need to re-fuel in the morning.<\/p>\n
Be positive and encourage your child to do his\/her best.<\/p>\n
