Test anxiety

Practice a helpful move for test anxiety.

Picture cards: Pause · Check the directions · Start one item

Use a pretend example. Students may watch or pass. Read the picture cards aloud. Say, “Watch me try one move.” Then model the words or action below.

Touch the table or look at one still thing. Point to a question to try first. Invite the student to point, show you, or say it with you.

Say, “Show or tell me your first move.” Point to the card that matches. If needed, model it together once more.
