Parent Tips for Helping Your Child Take the MAP Test


*Make sure your child is well rested the night before.

*Eat a healthy breakfast the morning of the test.  Try peanut buttered toast.
I have heard that peanut butter rouses the brain and improves a persons
thinking and focus. 

*Encourage your child to try their best!

*Remind your child that there is NOT a time limit. Additional time will be
provided to finish if needed.

*Remind your child how important is it to read all the test directions carefully.
If your child is unsure of a word, use an appropriate strategy to decode the
word. 

*If your child is unsure of what a question is asking, go back and reread.

*If your child is unsure of an answer, make a guess. Your child will NOT be
expected to know all the answers.

*Remind your child that some questions are easier and some will be harder.
