MCA testing has begun for 3rd, 4th and 5th graders this week. Below are some tips for successful testing that students and parents can do to prepare: 1. Make sure you are well rested 2. Eat a well balanced breakfast 3. Be on time, and be sure that you have the necessary materials-all students should bring their headphones. 4. Wear comfortable clothes and bring any assistive device that you need, such as glasses or a hearing aid. 5. Help reduce your student's stress: Tips include positive self-talk (“I know I can do this”), avoid being rushed and take deep breaths (the brain needs oxygen to think clearly). 6. Believe in your student's success: Parents can best support their student(s) by talking and listening about the student's school day actively, and always providing encouragement and support. 7. Encourage your student(s) to answer all test questions. 8. The MCA's are not timed so encourage your student to take their time and to do their best!
