Standardized testing is a major part of your child’s education. These tests are important, not only to you and your child, but also serve to guide instruction and class placement. Stressing the importance of the CRCT will push your child to do his/her best.
In addition, here are some effective tips to aid them with optimal
performance.
1. Reassure your child that he/she does not have to answer all of the questions correctly to pass.
2. Tell your child to attempt to answer all of the questions and not to leave any blanks. There is no penalty for guessing.
3. Remind your child that the test is important.
4. Explain to your child the importance of using time wisely.
If you child gets stuck on a question, encourage
him/her to make the best guess or place a mark in the test booklet by that item, and to go back to it after finishing that section of the test.
5. Make certain that your child gets a good night’s sleep and a healthy breakfast each morning of testing. Also, remember to have your child to school on time each day, to avoid last minute rushing.
