Rashaundra, Stephon, and Tonyea did such an awesome job during testing the last two days. If tomorrow goes as well...they are getting a pizza party on Friday! Keep up the outstanding work! I am so proud of you!
I know...testing is NOT an easy task, but Rashaundra, Stephon, and Tonyea shared what has motivated them the last couple of days to do such great work on their tests. When I asked them why they worked so hard, this is what they told me.
Rashaundra said that she knows that she wants to do her very best. Even when she sees that her peers are speeding though the tests, she says she knows she's capable of doing better if she is "slow and steady."
Stephon said the reason he worked so hard was "he wanted to do better on this 9 weeks test."
If you're finding it difficult to focus, do what Tonyea does. Tonyea says that from time to time she has to tell herself to be patient and remind herself of her long-term goals.
Those of you who did not win a pizza party this time- do your best work anyway. Your teachers are watching and they appreciate your best effort!
*Also, students, if your parents send back a permission slip- I'd love to post your pictures here!
