NEWS ALERT:
Thank you for ALL You
Do for US! 
Test Tips:
Before you read the story...take a quick look at the questions. They tell you
what to look for as you read!
If you see a new word, use the words around it as clues. They will help you
figure out what the new word means.
Read all your answer choices before you decide. Sometimes the last choice is
best.
Use picture clues.
Cross out silly answer choices to help get you closer to the right answer.
Be able to prove your answers by
finding and highlighting information in the story.
If you see a name in the passage
you can't read, just say your name instead.
Stuck on a hard question? Skip it
and move on. Come back to it later if time allows.
