Before choosing your "final answer" on any multiple choice test, how many answer choices should you look at?
I can stop when I find one that could be right
It depends on the question
Only the longest answer - it's always right
Always read all answer choices
What is *NOT* a reason why you should take your time on the STAAR test?
Taking time to find proof for answers will increase your chances of getting the correct answer
Using a dictionary can help you get answers correct
The test is so fun that you want it to last forever.
You don't get to leave, talk, or use your phone anyway - so you might as well take that time to do your best on the test.
Why should you try to get a good night's sleep and eat a healthy breakfast before the STAAR test?
The test is long and tiring - you need to be alert and have energy to do your best
So that you can speed through the test without reading all of it
So that you will know what all of the words mean and not have to use a dictionary
The test is so easy that you don't need to prepare at all
On testing day, you should:
Be nervous and assume you will fail
Be confident - it's a brand new test with no mistakes yet
Not care whether or not you pass
Be so confident that you do not take your time or use your testing tools/strategies
If you come across a really hard question, what should you do?
Spend up to 30 minutes on that question right then - it doesn't matter if you end up not finishing the test
Use process of elimination to narrow down answers
Skip it and come back later (making sure to skip that number on your answer document)
Use dictionaries, context, and other strategies and tools
Everyone has the ability to pass this test if they use strategies and tools.
True
False
Choose which of these are good strategies or tools for the STAAR test
use a dictionary if you aren't sure what a word means
go back in the story to find proof of your answer
use context from the story to help with word meaning
take your time
