Hey testers! Err, I mean teachers!
I’ll be honest, state testing falls right next to my love for getting sick. I guess it depends on the school you are at. I totally think that is beneficial to teach kids and use data to drive instructions. It’s what I look at when I create small groups, and re-teach standards for re-assessing.
BUT, 8 year old’s with test anxiety? Are you KIDDING me?
Anyone else feel similar? Comment below so that I’m not alone.
WELL, these babies have to do it, so we might as well make sure they are as comfortable as they can! Keep reading to snag idea to boost student morale with motivational state testing posters. These testing posters were created by teachers in our school and they are too amazing not to share. The student’s eyes lit up when they walked the hallways knowing that the entire school was rooting them on like a big football game, except it was a big state test.
Pin the image at the top of this post or the image below so you can remember these poster ideas for next year! I will add more as more are created!
