[QUOTE="Methuselah, post: 525233, member: 12725"] TeDo, my kids stressed over the state tests, too, because the school teaches them to stress about it. :-/ I solved it by telling my kids the truth: the state tests are the school's and teachers' tests. They test the students to make sure the school and teachers are doing their jobs. If the school doesn't do well, it tells the state the school isn't doing their job and is failing the students. Do your best work, so the state knows Mrs. X is doing her best work. This helped my kids immensely. They don't fear it like the plague anymore. [/QUOTE]
