Ease Their Minds
By Ummmmmm

Clip to ScrapBook   
As a teacher I think it is our job to help our students do the best they can on test. That isn't always making them do work or studying. I read somewhere that students that were thinking about things that make them happy right before a big test did better on the test. It eases their minds and allows them to think clearly, get all the anxiety out of their heads and just let the creativity and understanding flow. In one class I did this by just asking the student to name their favorite food, color, thing, etc.
