Even though I am not working in the testing grades this year, I can feel the stress and tension from my colleagues who are. Can you?
I wanted to share this little Lucky Pencil testing encouragement treat I made for my students last year.
I made the pencil using:
- a roll of Mentos (you could also use Rolos)
- yellow and pink paper
- a Hershey Kiss
- some aluminum foil
- a Sharpie marker
- double sided tape
I attached a star with an encouraging poem that I wrote saying,
“You are ready, feel strong!
Work carefully & you won’t go wrong!
Use your noggin, do not stress!
Just do your best on the test!”
Come on over to see how to put it all together and for a FREE copy of the star poem…
