Wow, its March already. The school year has zoooommed by. We have been working very hard preparing for the Terra Nova Testing. The test will be given during the week of April 9-12. Please make sure that you assist us in preparing your child. Below is a list of tips that you and your family can do at home to help prepare your child: 1. Make sure that your chiuld is in school during the testing sessions. Do not plan doctor or dental appointments during test dates. 2. Encourage your child to study over a period of time rather than "cram" the night before. 3. Encourage your child to listen carefully to all test-taking directions given by the teacher and to ask questions if the directios are unclear. 4. See that your child eats breakfast on the day of the test. Hunger an detract from a good performance. 5. Encourage your child to do his/her best!
