PSSA PREP Tip:

• BEE Physically Ready:
• Get a good night’s sleep before the test. This should take priority over entertainment options. 
• The morning of the test, eat a breakfast that includes protein: eggs, bacon, peanut butter, cheese, yogurt, tofu, etc. 
• BE ON TIME. Stretch during testing breaks .
• BEE Mentally Prepared:
•  Being nervous or not caring, ruins your performance. 
• Remember, the passages were not chosen to entertain you. 
• Keep yourself engaged through active reading, highlighting, and writing margin notes. 
• Be competitive with the test makers, not intimidated by them.
