CSAP Tips for Parents

Here are some tips for parents to help their students do their best every day and especially during the CSAP testing period. Please help your child prepare by doing the following:

get a good night's sleep (at least 8 - 10 hours)
eat a healthy breakfast
arrive at school on time and be here for the testing period (please reschedule any appointments for after the testing if possible)
have a positive “can do” student attitude
Plan ahead to ensure that your child is present and on time for the test.

What are some test taking tips that will help my child take CSAP? Remind your child:

Read the test directions carefully
Read the questions carefully and be sure to read all of the answer choices before responding
If you don’t know an answer to a question, skip it and go on to the next question
If there is time at the end of the test, then return to the unanswered question
Eliminate any answers that you know are wrong, and then consider only those that might be right.
If you finish early, check your answers
