Both students and their parents in the unincorporated U.S. territory of Guam have spent recent days preparing for the Stanford Achievement Test (SAT-10). This is due to the fact that from April 30 through May 11, schools on the island will be administering the Test to roughly 30,000 students, the Pacific Daily News reported.
Using the results of the SAT-10, teachers and parents will be able to see how students throughout Guam are progressing academically, according to the territory’s Department of Education (DoE). The Test is offered in a multiple-choice format, with subtests focused on reading, language, spelling, listening, social science, mathematics and science.
As the SAT-10 can be beneficial to the quality of instruction offered in Guam’s classrooms, the DoE has called on parents to help prepare their children for the two weeks of testing they will face.
For starters, the DoE has asked parents to make sure their children get a good night’s sleep, as the SAT-10 is administered in the morning. As a result, parents will also want to make sure their kids get to school on time and eat a good breakfast. Furthermore, students should know how to relax before and during the Test to ensure they are not under stress.
