Testing Rules
(Please go over with your children)
* No talking during the instructions and during the test
* Questions can ONLY be asked when the teacher says, “Are there any questions?” and you CANNOT call out your questions (you must give a quite “thumbs up”)
* Teachers CANNOT help students during the test – students should work on doing their best INDEPENDENTLY
* Students are NOT ALLOWED to leave the testing room until the test is over (so NO bathroom trips)
* Students cannot talk to other students during the test
