5 Easy Test Prep Strategies

1) Quickly review materials just before going to sleep.  Your mind will continue to think about the information.
 
2) Turn chapter headings and subheadings within chapters into possible test questions.
 
3) Review the key vocabulary words from the unit of study.
 
4) Arrive at class on time and prepared with all necessary materials.
 
5) Have a positive attitude that you’ve studied and you will do well on the test.


Final Thoughts...

While these may seem like small steps or perhaps even common sense, as teachers we know we must never assume.  Take the few minutes to teach these steps to students. Post them in your classroom.  Make it part of your learning routine and see your students bloom from their efforts.
