As we approach the upcoming ELA State Testing, we want to ensure that our students are prepared and confident for the big day! The state testing will take place on April 9th-10th, and it’s important to remember that preparation isn’t just about studying—it’s also about taking care of yourself.
Here are a few helpful tips to help students do their best:
- Get a Good Night’s Sleep: The night before the test, make sure to get plenty of rest! A full night of sleep helps improve concentration and memory, ensuring students are alert and ready to tackle the test.
- Eat a Healthy Breakfast: Starting the day with a balanced breakfast can make all the difference. Foods like oatmeal, eggs, or a smoothie provide the energy needed to stay focused throughout the test. Avoid sugary cereals or snacks that may cause energy crashes later on. Please note, we offer a free breakfast and lunch to all students. Please click here to view the food services program.
- Stay Hydrated: Don’t forget to drink water throughout the day! Staying hydrated helps keep energy levels up and the brain functioning at its best.
- Stay Positive and Relax: Test anxiety is normal, but students should remember that they’ve prepared for this moment. Take a deep breath, stay positive, and do your best. It’s not about perfection; it’s about putting forth effort.
- Bring Your Best Effort: Come prepared with everything you need—pencils, erasers, and any other materials specified by your teacher. A positive mindset and focus will help you succeed.
We wish our students the best of luck with their ELA State Testing!
