It's here! The MEAP test is here at Blue Star and ready to be started tomorrow. We've been working hard to review the material to help the students be on the best tomorrow but there are a couple of things that we talked about that we need your help with.
1. Make sure your child is well rested. We will do our best to minimize homework during the next two weeks, and we ask that you do your best to help get the students in bed at a reasonable time. Rested brains are best!
2. We will be making times for 2 snack breaks on the days we have MEAP. One of the times will be right when we get to school and the second will be after the first testing part. Your child should bring in 2 healthy snacks for testing days. We will not allow them to eat candy bars or other food like that prior to taking the test. Treats like that can be saved for lunch time.
3. On that same note, make sure your child has a healthy breakfast before coming to school. We talked about how our brain is a muscle too and needs healthy food in order to perform at its best.
4. Stay positive! The kids are prepared and the test is a review. They will do spectacular on it!
Thanks so much for your help!
