Make sure your child is well rested on school days and especially on the day of a test. Provide a hearty breakfast on the morning of the test. Be sure your child arrives on time to school each day and attends regularly.
Tests reflect overall achievement, so regular attendance is important .
Don t judge your child on the basis of a single test score. It s more important to focus on progress over a marking period than on the results of one test. Contact the teacher whenever you have questions about school progress, including test results. Some youngsters find it helpful to relax themselves with a couple of slow, deep breaths before they begin. Begin as soon as you can and complete the test exactly as you are told to do.
