Testing Information

​

When preparing to test, here are some study aids for exams including math videos which can be found by Googling Ron Climer math and Karen Climer also has a helpful YouTube channel.

 

Also, a few minutes before you sit down to take your exams take a brisk walk for a few minutes if possible. Research shows it can increase recall up to 85%. If you cannot take a walk, doing a few jumping jacks or taking deep breaths is also helpful.

 

Recent research shows that drinking peppermint tea or inhaling peppermint essential oils before testing is also helpful for recall.
