Academic Corner - How to Support Student to Prepare for Standardized Assessments - On a Daily Basis
In addition, to test-taking strategies, there are several ways that you can maximize your child's learning capabilities throughout the school year, which can lead to confident test-taking. Some of these strategies include:
- Assisting your child with homework and ensuring that your child is completing all homework assignments
- Helping them to develop good study habits, thinking skills, and a positive attitude towards education from an early age
- Ensuring that your child has good attendance at school
- Staying in communication with your child's teacher
- Encouraging your child to read as much as possible and to increase their vocabulary - even reading magazines, newspapers, and comic books regularly will help improve their reading skills.
- Looking for educational games and programs that engage your child
- Helping your child learn to follow directions carefully (Dietel, 2008; IRA (2002); Narang, 2008).
Finally, remember that standardized tests and grading systems are imperfect; each format has limitations. As you help your child do their best on the tests they take and in all their schoolwork, also remind them that testing is just one part of their education. With your support and involvement, she will be well on her way to her own bright future.
