CST Testing Reflection

Today I finished taking the last test which was based on science. I seriously hated this whole week of testing. It was so long that I really do not want to go through it again next year.The first day of testing was ok because I got to take my English test with my favorite teacher Ms. Priester. The next day I was very happy because I did not have to test so all I did was stay in the gym With coach Burgo and play some basketball. Unfortunately the following morning I had to test in biology and World History. I really hated taking the world history test because I seriously strongly dislike the subject. I believe that it is the most boring subject that can be taught by a teacher. At the same time I its hard to try and learn it when I don't want to! Over all this whole testing week was very long. I was very exhausted at the end of every session and day and thinking I had to do it the next day made it worse. I am pretty confident that I did a great job on my tests. I am also sure that I have improved compared to my freshmen year test scores. I am looking forward to my results.

Testing Tips, Strategies, and Plays Reflection

Comprehending and being able to know tips, strategies, and plays helps a student out on testing because the testing can be done much quicker with no hesitation. For example before taking the test the teacher or person giving out the test reads some instructions of tasks that must be complete. If a student were to not listen to the instructions that he or she has expressed the student can mess some sort of information like the number to the booklet or the wrong information in the wrong place. Another example is when teachers or people giving the test let the students know that they have a certain time limit. Certain students are slower then others and may not finish in the time that was set causing students to rebel and complain about how they are not done. A great strategy for this type of situation would be starting a little earlier then others if possible. There are many ways tips, strategies, and plays help students out on testing and the one's mentioned above are not even half of them.

My Feelings about the Upcoming CSTs

I am a little nervous to start the star testing but also very excited. according to my calculations I always feel a little nervous but this is the first time I've ever felt excited about testing. The reason I am feeling excited about taking these tests is because I feel that I have progressed sense my freshmen year here at San Pasqual Academy. I believe that my grades have increased tremendously. I also believe that I have learned plenty of the material that is on the tests that we are going to take. I always feel nervous when it comes to seeing the test right in front of me because I feel like I forget all the material that I have gone through and learned. Right now at this very moment I am still nervous but I know that when I start it I will feel accomplished.
