Dear fifth grade teachers,
Today, I was ready for the HSA test. I tried to sleep early, and have a good breakfast.
To start off, I think that it was pretty easy and challenging for some parts. I think that I did well because I made sure that I read the passage. Some of the questions were difficult, but, I tried using some of the tips that Mr. Honda gave us like, "Cross out the GOOFY answers." Overall, I think that I did very good. I cant wait until tomorrows test!!!
To sum up, I think that overall, I did very well on my test. Thank you for helping and making sure that we are prepared for the test!!

Dear 5th grade teachers,
I thought the test was AWESOME! In the beginning I felt super scared but, when we started it wasn't so scary. I think I did well on the test. To me the test was easy because all the teachers went over all the concepts with us. I liked everything about the test. I guess all the practicing payed off during the test.

Dear Fith Grade Teachers,
The HSA today was a breeze. It was all very simple questions and I'm sure I aced the test. I know I did well because I tried my best!
First off, I think the test today was no challenge. Every question was easier than our homework assignments, which are not difficult. I think it was easy because you all prepared us well and taught us well. Because of that the test was really easy.
Additionally, I'm sure I aced the test. I know that because for one I tried my best and focused really hard. Also, I double checked to make sure I had all of the answers correct so many times I lost count.
To summarize, the test was not at all hard. It was all just like a simple reveiw of what we learned. Plus, I am 95% sure I got a VERY HIGH score. The other 5% I think I got a HIGH score.

Dear fifth grade teacher,
During the HSA testing I felt great. I was very prepared for this test. First, I sleept early last night and I had a healthy fruity complete breakfast today. Today's reading test felt kinda easy. I think that I did pretty good on this test. I double checked my work read all the direction correctly. The best part of the test was trying our best so we can get a little treat after. To conclude, I look forward to taking another test tomorrow. I know that if I try my best I will do fine.

Dear fifth grade teachers,
When the HSA tests were being past out I felt very nervous.To begin with, I was worried I would fail the test and our school wouldn't do good.As soon as I opened the booklets I saw that the questions weren't to challenging. All I did was stick to my skills like double checking and eliminating the goofy answers.
To conclude, I felt that I did pretty well and I will now always stay confident.

Dear fith grade teachers,
Today's test was fairly fun, and easy To begin, the test was easy because it was just reveiw of what we did throughout the school year. Also, I thought that I did fairly well on the test because like I said before that it was pretty much reveiw. The thing that I enjoyed the most about the test is that we had u[ to double the amount of time on the test. The thing that I did not enoy about the test is that it only has a few lines for your constructed response. Throughout the test I felt like the stories that I were reading were from different Genres. To conclude, this is how I felt about the test.

Dear 5th grade teachers,
I felt confident doing the HSA test. To begin, this test was pretty easy. If I had to rate it from one to ten, I would give it a two because it was easy.

To end, I am ready for tommorow's test and I know I will do great.

This test wasn't all that hard, so I would give this test a 2 out of 10 because it was that easy. I enjoyed the multiple choice because those were easy and that written responce was a little bit more harder. To conclude, I can't wait until tomorrow's test because I know I will do great.

Dear 5th grade teachers,
Hi! I felt super ready for the HSA tests since I had an awesome breakfast and good sleep. Lets start by saying that the questions on the test were pretty easy so I breezed write through it. I also thought I did pretty awesome during the test. My favorite part of the test was the incentivies our teachers gave us. My least favorite part of the test was checking my answers over and over while waiting for everyone else to finish. To end this I wanted to say thanks to you guys for getting me prepared for the tests.

Thanks to all of those things I do for the HSA test, i feel so ready for the test.
From Student #58

Dear fifth grade teachers,
I think that I was ready for the test. I ate breakfast and tried to go to bed on time. Also, Ithought that the test was pretty easy but, only some of the question were kind of difficult. To add, I think that I did good on this test because prepared. At the first part of the test I felt a little nervous because I didn't know how I would do or what questions would be on the test. The thing that I liked about the test is that if you do not get to finish then you get double the time which is 2 1/2 hrs. Something that I didn't like about the test is that when you get into the test taking position we cannot stand up or do anything like if you have to go to the bathroom then the teacher has to go to the bathroom with you.

Dear fifth grade teachers,
Today at around 8:00 we started our HSA test also known as the Hawaii State Assment. For this test I think that it is requiered that you have breakfest,your well rested and most importanly to try you very best.
Before we even took the test Mr.Honda my home room teacher gave us a few awesome tips.Like, enialate the goofy answer . TERMANATE the silly answers . I worked my hands of writing for the test's it must have taken me at least an hour writing all the words . let me warn you it's not a walk in the park but it is easy but sometimes the answers may get difficult.
So if you think your not ready studt if you think you are ready ... study more.

Dear 5th grade teachers,
When we started the test I felt prepared and confident. To me, I think I did ok on the test. I thought that it was easy because I followed the tips Mr. Honda gave us and I made sure I double checked my answers good. The day before I thought I was going to like the story and what it was about, which I did. Then I thought I wasn't going to like to reading the whole thing, But I kind of liked it. To sum up, overall I think I did pretty good. Also you did a good job preparing us for the HSA tests!

Dear Fifth grade Teachers,
Tuesday and today I was ready and prepared for the HSA testing. I didn't really feel nervous because it is almost exactly like the test we took in the beginning of the year/quarter.
To begin, I think I did pretty well. I am in math team so I think I did okay on the math. The reading was kinda easy too. That is why I think I did good... The tests were kinda easy because most of the questions were questions we already knew. Also we were prepared. (being ready for your chance to do well.)
In addition, what I liked about the test was that we ere rewarded for all our hard work and we tried our best. The part I didnt like about the test was it begin so long.
To conclude, I think that overall I did good and that I will get a good score.

Dear fifth grade teachers,
The HSA testing was Long! But i knew that if you want your school to do good you need to stick it out to the very end and that's what i did. To begin, I felt super prepared! I ate a good breakfast and had a good night rest. I know I did super good. To end, HSA was awesome and I'm going to do my very best even if the test is four hours.

Dear 5th grade teachers,
I think I was pretty prepared, or lucky for the test.
First of all, I woke up alert and ready to go, and I have a strong feeling that I did pretty well.
I think that the tests were very easy because we knew all of the test taking tips and were prepared for the kind of questions they were going to ask because of the homework over spring break.
I liked that we could go back as many times as needed and that we were able to write notes in the test booklet.
I didn't like how little space we had to write in for the reading part, because I would have loved to put in much more.
To sum up, I really like to challenge myself in the exciting HSA tests!
Sincerely,

Dear fifth grade teacher,
Today, I used all the tips that you gave to me and with all the help, I think I aced the test and did an awesome job.
To begin with, I KNOW that I did a very good job because I used some strategies like,cross out the goofy answer and read ALL directions CAREFULLY.
Also, before the test I felt so nervous because I hadn't taken the test for a while and I wasn't used to the process and I just had to let the feeling sink in. I thought the test was pretty easy covering most things because Mr. Honda had gone over many skills with us which made the test a breeze . I think I did a marvelous job.
All in all, I think that practice makes perfect!

Dear fifth grade teachers,
These HSA tests we took was the most nervous test I ever took. To begin, at first I had to tell my self to read carful and take my time and i'll do well. At first it was pretty easy, but then I paniced when it was the constructed response.
Another is, the math was easier. Math I never panic. Math is my favorite subject. I only paniced on surface area.
As a resault, these two days of HSA testing was great. Overall I'd rate this 10 out of 10!!

Dear Teachers,
This year I was prepared for HSA testing, I study over break and did the homework.
First of all, I thought the HSA test was pretty easy. For instance, since I studied it was really easy. The Math was kind of hard but the Reading was really easy.
Second, something I like about the test was that they make it challanging. I like that because it keeps you alert, so you could pay attention.
In concliusion, I like when we take the HSA test.
Dear Fifth grade teachers,
I liked the HSA testing. Even though it was extreamly long it was easy. First of all, I felt tired. When I finished and checked my work twice, I felt drowsy because it took forever. My stratagies I used where cross out goofy answers, find the closest answer, and 50 50 gussing. They are good tips but I barely used them. I only had a hard time on around two questions only so I think I did darn good. To conclude, I think that I did good on the test and tried my vey best.

Dear 5th grade teachers,
From Monday-Wednesday was our HSA testing and I slept the earliest I've ever slept in a while.
To start, I felt nervous and unsure but once Mr. Honda gave us a speech about not getting butterflies I felt confident. I thought I did pretty well on the tests because I was sure about most of the questions.
Additionally, The test felt extremely easy and it was a blast because all of the questions in the test I already knew and most of them I remembered ( I was surprised I knew all that.) I loved that we had additional time to double, maybe even triple check. I loved everything on the test this HSA test was actually easy for the first time.
To conclude, that was the best, most easiest test ever.
Dear fifth grade teachers,
I thought the test was super AWESOME! When we first got the test I was scared but, when we started the test it wasn't that bad I was confident and when the test was all done I said to my self "that was a easy test" It was easy because the test is like basic things we already learned. It' good to study for a test because if you study you have a better chance of knowing the answer.

Dear Fith Grade teachers
During the test I felt worried on how I will score. I knew I slept early and had a good meal. Though for some reason I didn't feel comfident enough.
I ended up checking and checking many many times. But that unsure feeling inside still wouldn't go away. "Cross out the goofy amswers" and other helpful tips gathered in my head. I kept on earasing then end up writing what I had just earased.
Finally the test was over. I started to relax again. I knew I did my best. And when we got our ensentive I knew I deserved it. I just couldn't wait till the next test.

Dear 5th grade teachers,
I was realy excited to do the HSA test. I love it how the room is so silent and nobody says a word. I really tried to use the tips that Mr.Honda gave us like cross out the goofy answers and sit up straight. That day i was ready by eating a good breakfest and i slept very well. To conclude thanks for all the advice and i am hoping to do well on the next test.
