Aims/Stanford Subway Art

My daughter Bo is in the 4th grade. Next week, April 15-19 she will be taking the AIMS Test. AIMS stands for Arizona's Instrument to Measure Standards.
My daughter Bree is in the second grade. She will be taking the Stanford 10 Test.
Here is the revised Testing Schedule. 
Next week will be a hard for them. Testing is hard for some people, especially my daughter Bo.
My daughter Bo is really nervous about the testing. She did great last year, but she feels that she doesn't do a very good job testing. I wanted to create something that can comfort her and gladden her.

I found these printables- Sweet Notes of Encouragement at Technology Rocks Seriously.
This is a really, really great site!  I love these notes, but I kind of wanted to try my hand at another subway art. This is for my sweet girls who are such great kids and students. I will do my best to help them, support them, and give them all my love next week during their testing. Good Luck Girls!





Here is the link to download your own!
I just remembered I have all girls, and other people have boys. Sorry there are no boys in this house! When you print this you should be able to change the color settings, maybe to blue?? 
 Sorry, next time I make one, I will make two for both boys and girls. 




Then last night my daughter came to me while working on her homework and asked what 9x9 was?? I thought really? I asked her to think about it and then we went through some other nines and then I finally told her it was 81. **I have learned that most students struggle with their nines** My daughter is one of them that struggles with math.  She said she couldn't remember the multiplication and was worried about not being able to use her cheat sheet on the AIMS test.  I told her I would print a chart out this weekend and help her re-memorize her multiplication. 
I found this wonderful multiplication chart at Living Laughing & Loving.  I printed it off and we will be working on our multiplication this weekend! Anything to do to help my girls. Love them so much!



I am so grateful for people who have already created some free printables for us to use. Thank you! It really helps me and my family! 

May our little ones minds be open to all that they have studied and learned over the year. 
Good Luck Little Ones!!
