  Case: Too many tests!
Our school district has so many tests! We do standard based report cards so an average of 30 grades per report card. We also have quarterly benchmarks, SLOs at the beginning of the year, COGATS, and STAR Reading, Early Literacy, and Math assessments. It is so tough to encourage kids to give their best on all of these because they are tired of tests!!! Does anyone have tips to get them excited?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
We have a lot of tests in our county also. I just try to motivate students before the tests to do their best and teach them the importance of the tests.

Comments: I think this a good solution, although I feel like this could only work in the beginning of the year. They might get tired hearing about the 'importance'.
