1. have good attendance (we will be preparing each day for the big test, so don't miss out and do your best to not be tardy)
2. review at home
3. ask questions if you are still having a challenge with something covered in class (remember our class is a safe zone to share ideas and form questions)
4. be on your best behavior and stay focused during class time (even if you feel like you've got it together academically, the person next to you may not and it's unfair to take away from his/her education by being distracting)
5. take study notes on a topic that is challenging you so you can review them later
What to do on the test days...
1. get a good night's sleep each night
2. eat a healthy breakfast to jumpstart your brain daily
3. come to school on time (don't be tardy)
4. eliminate incorrect answers
5. underline key information in the questions
6. bubble in your answers completely (with a #2 pencil), making sure you are in the correct spot on your answer sheet
7. triple check your answers if you finish early
8. check the time periodically and pace yourself (if time is almost up and you have unanswered questions go ahead and bubble in an answer for each question, so you at least have a chance, and then if there's more time go back over them)
9. take deep breathes and stretch your hands/arms to relieve tension
10. believe in yourself and know that I believe in you, too
Remember these tips! I think you're going to do GREAT!
Love,
Ms. Dawn

Hi Miss Dawn!It's me,Marietta(AKA:Kona-Chan)!I have a question.Is TCAP a test or our grades?
Dear Kona-Chan,
The big almost week long TCAP test you all took a few weeks ago will go on your last report card, along with the other grades you have from classwork, quizzes, etc. TCAP will be about 15% of your final grade - if we get the scores back in time! Still no scores yet...
Your teacher,
Ms. Dawn
Thanks, Diamond! You're a fun student!
=)
