CSAP

Hello Students,

CSAP has come to an end for your fourth grade year.  I am curious to know how you felt about it, and what you found easy, difficult, enjoyable, etc.  Write a short paragraph reflecting on your experience this year with CSAP.

Thanks,
Mrs. Springston

Dear Mrs.Springston,
I think CSAP was cool but I was a little nervous when I first started. But in all it was fun when I did the paragraphs and write a lot. I love the math problems that had multiplication. But it was a little weird when we were first starting because we had two CSAP'S everyday but at the ending part of CSAP it was only one a day. So that's why I thought CSAP was a little weird. But in all CSAP was fun.

Dear Mrs.Springston,
Even though I felt many different ways these three were the ones that I mostly felt.First I felt excited because I was happy that we started math first.Second I felt nervous because I was afraid I was going to miss a lot of questions.Lastly I felt scared because I was worried that I was not going to get advanced on math or proficient on reading and writing.I felt that math was easy and I felt that writing and reading was challenging.I also thought that some of the writing stories and math were enjoyable.Now you know how I felt about CSAP. Your friend, KJ

Dear Mrs.S,
I felt confident about the math CSAP, but not that much about the writing. I thought the math CSAP was easy, I was not to happy after I read the first prompt of writing. Mrs.Springston how did you feel? I was happy that CSAP was over.

Dear Mrs.Springton




I thought I was going to do bad on CSAP testing but I thought I did well on reading.I like writing so the writing and reading test was easier than the math test because I have trouble with math like I stragle with adding and subtraction fractions.But there was noe of that so I did'nt have to worry about that! But on reading I thought I wouldn't finish my eight sentence paragraph because we only had five minute to finish but after I had finshed all of the test I was relieved that I finished.

Dear Mrs.Springston,

In my opinion I think CSAP is kind of a mixture of fun and boring. I think that because most of the tinen it felt like a normall day to me just writing a lot. My favorite part of CSAP was math. Because, I am pretty good at math so it was a sinch. I don't only like it because it was easy I liked it because I like math and solving number stories. That is why I liked the math portion of CSAP. Then comes the writing portion of CSAP, thats where the boring comes from. Don't get me wrong some of it was ok I guess. Just all that writing makes me crazy . The 8 sentence expository paragraph was the longest especially the first one. But on and on it got easier.Thats my opinion of CSAP .

Dear Mrs.Springston,

Here are some of the things I felt when I was takeing csap.
First, when I was takeing the math test I was very nervous because I usually struggle with math. But I got through it ok and fine. Next, when I took the writing test I felt ok. But I was still nervous after words. After that, I took the reading test I felt ok onely because I didn't finish the first one. Then,I took another writing test and felt pretty confident and most of it was challenging but I got it done. Then I felt as confident as I could and I finished and I felt great. A little bit there was onely one question I didn't know my grade. So I am just going hope that I get a good grade. So here are some emotions I went through during csap.

Dear Mrs.Springston,
When CSAP (Colorado Student Assessment Program) was going on I felt scared because I thought I would not pass and run out of time but at times you rush and get something wrong.If you get some thing wrong that would be a big problem for you.That was how I felt in CASP.

Dear Mrs. Springston,

When I began my first csap test I was really nervous. I didn't know what to do. In my old school we did it different. But I got used to it when the teacher told me the directions. I wasn't afraid anymore so I tried my best in the csap test. Well I got stuck on some problem so I just guessed and I think got the answer right. Whan the csap test was over we had to read a book and the techer was grat. this is what I did for the first csap test.

Dear Mrs.Springston,
Here are some of my feelings of how I felt on CSAp. First of all, I felt nervous.I felt nervous at first because I was afraid I wasn't going to put effort into my work. But then since it was going to be math I wasn't that nervous. Next, I felt like if there was butterflies in my stomach. It felt that way because I usually don't take timed tests and I thought I wasn't going to finish it on time.
Then, since we had it for about to weeks all the yuck feelings went away but not that quick like if you were too snap your fingers and my feelings would go away. No it didn't happen that way it took me about three days to get over the feelings I had . This are all my feelings on how I felt when I took the egnormous, important test.

Dear Mrs.Springston,

I thought csap was going to be hard. But I thought that the math was the hardest on the test .The writing was so easy for me but it wasin't the esiest for me.The reading one was a little easy and alittle hard, but I don't give up. I traid to do my best to get a P. I was all right when I took it. I looked over my answers.

Dear Mrs.Springston,


When we began CSAP it looked really long and I was worried that I wouldn't finish. I thought it would never end. I liked the math because it was kind of easy to do the whole thing. But the one that was reading.But even though it was hard I stilll liked the test.

Dear Mrs Springston,

I think I did good on reading and writing test. I think I did good because I would reread the artical and I would say to my self that I was going to do good on CSAP. Writing was easy to do because I liked some of the prompts that they had on the test . But my teacher that testes me said that my writing was good.
