My Project

As fifth graders, my students have already endured 22 high-stakes tests in their young lives. These next four SC READY assessments will determine their placement in middle school and ultimately if each of them will move on to sixth grade. These hard working students have pushed themselves so incredibly far this year. It is distressing to see students become visibly nervous, shaking and some even work themselves up to the point of nausea or vomiting. These snacks and oils will go a long way in relieving some of the testing stress and anxiety that my students experience.
