preparing for FCAT

I prepare for the FCAT by using a program in the computer called Study Island. It has the subjest math and reading and you choose what topic you need to do then you take a test were you can choose how many questions you want. You can take it in form of a test or game, thats the fun part. I don't do this anymore but my mom used to buy me a book called FCAT coach, which is like a practice book for every subject. You have different types of questions. Also, i sometimes study with the school books like the math book or the literature because those are the kind of things we need to focosed on for the "BIG BOMB." This is like the hardest semester because teachers rush you to a bunch of test and stuff in a week because when there is like 2 weeks till the FCAT your like totally cocentrated in it, therefor the teachers dont have time to have atleast 9 grades in the computer. I really hate the FCAT because everything you learn in school you have to memorize for the FCAT! The message that they are giving in this school and i think every other one in the miami - dade county is that school is just preparing you for the FCAT when really the FCAT is just to give your school a grade! I really hate that. Well anyways i think that i'm ready for this years FCAT so ........................... Wish me luck!!!! ♥
