New testing lyrics to the tune of "What Do You Do With A Water Waster?" from Music K-8, Vol. 18, No. 4.

During our state standards testing, I wrote these words for our 3rd and 4th graders to sing during our morning assembly, "Rise and Shine":

What do you do when you take a test?
What do you do when you take a test?
What do you do when you take a test on a *Tuesday morning?"
Hey ho, you do your best!
Hey ho, you do your best!
Hey ho, you do your best on a *Tuesday morning.

(*Change the day of the week to fit the day or days of testing.)

The Fairview students really enjoy your arrangement of this song and feel motivated to do their best on their test.
