Letter to Students for State Test Motivation/Reassurance

By Miss Yous Clues and Resources

This is a one page letter addressed to students to give them reassurance/motivation during the state test or any other high stakes testing. This letter explains to the students how proud you are of them regardless of the results. It goes on to explain to them how the testing only measures how much or what they learned during the school year but emphasizes the positive character traits of them that cannot be measured by a test.

This resource would be great to leave on the students desks the morning off the assessments to start the day off on a positive note or to send it home a day or two prior to the test to help take the pressure off them that may have been building up.
