Yes we are taking the state test next week what I would say to a person that never took the test before would be don’t be worried because you can do it and that is all that matters. There is really nothing to be afraid of its just a test that shows how good you do in school. Nothing will happen if you get a couple of answers wrong.
Well if you’re nervous here are some things you should do. First if you think you can’t do it then you should relax for about 1 minute. Second, you have to read the passage three times then you answer the question. Remember take your time. Third you should highlight important words. Fourth you should find your answer in the passage.
I would tell them to read the passage more than one time and read it carefully. When they read a question they should find the answer in the passage before looking at the answers. They should go through the answers one at a time. They also should strike out the answers that they know can’t be right. They should write their answer on a piece of paper before looking through the choices. If you follow the advice you should do well on the test.
I would tell them take a deep breath and relax there is nothing wrong, and pretend it is an ordinary test except that they should pay more attention. Go to sleep early and imagine something you like so you don’t get worried. Get up early so you don’t have to rush to go to school. Be prepared with the tools you need which are basically computer, paper, sticky note, and pencil. Wear something comfortable and it has to be light so you don’t get sweaty, comfort is the key to focus.
Take deep breathes if you get nervous. Stretch when you get tired. If you high light important words and read the question you’re going to do fine. You can get a drink if your throat is dry and you can go to the bathroom. The teachers can help with a word but they can’t tell you what it is. And you can’t cheat because everyone is going to have a different test. If you consitrate you will do fine.
Yes, next week we are taking the state test. I would say that you should highlight the important words. You also read the passage more than once. Write the answer on a piece of paper. Eliminate the answers that are definitely not it and with that you’ll be fine.
Highlight the important words. If you don’t know a word for some reason just read around it in that paragraph that you are in. read the answers one at a time. Take your time on all of the answers you can’t just sit there and say nope that’s not it I don’t have that on my paper nope that can’t be that it is not on my paper. You can’t do that is how you get the answer wrong don’t do that. Just make sure that you think it through and I hope that you get 100%.I really do hope you get 100%. Do a great job.
The advice I would give is to take a deep breath if they need it. I also would tell them to high light the important words in the question. Then look for those words in the passage. You can also cover the answers then write on a piece of paper what you think. If you are struggling you can look at them one at a time. Then cross out the answers that don’t make sense.
The first thing you do in the state test is to read the passage about 3 or more times. Next we do the retell first so you won’t forget. After that we fold the piece of paper. Then we highlight the important words, use the striker, take a deep breath and look at the choices also write your answer on a piece of paper. If you take your time you might get a good score but if you rush you get a bad score.
Take a deep breath cover the answer. If you don’t know you can look at the answer one at a time. Highlight the important words look at the passage .don’t look at other peoples answers and don’t right down there stuff on to your paper do not cheat or talk the teacher will thank you are cheating.
When we take the State test here is some advice. The first thing you do is read the passage. Cover the answers and highlight the important words. Go back to the passage and find the answers. Take a break if you need to. Read the passage three times. Ask the teacher to get a drink if need to.
I would say have you learned in your classroom then you have nothing to worry about. You have taken practice test before. It is just like the state test. Don’t sweat it. Just tell yourself in your head it’s the practice test. Try your best and work hard. We put a sticky note on our choices. Then we write down our answer to the problem. We look for the answer. If it is not there we look for a similar answer. Try your best and work hard.
If you are nervous you should take your time and high light the important words. You should not be afraid about the test it is just a test but make sure you do a good job. It is ok if you miss couple of 3 or less.
Here are the first things you have to do win the state test comes. Caver the question up and read the passage at less 3 times. Then highlight the important words then if you have trouble then go back to the passage then and find your answers. Then write to the side the answers you think it wood is. And take your time and answers the question one by one. I hope you get a good grade.
