 * Tell students they can use the textbook on the test **AFTER** they have answered the first 8 questions. Check to make sure students have answered the first 8 questions before allowing them to take out their textbook.
 * Tell students to remain silent during the test (as long as there is still a single test out, students must do something silently).
 * Keep an eye on students to make sure they aren't cheating. Don't let students write down answers/look at each other's test/etc.
 * Give each student a test--they write their answers right on the test--they have done this before.
 * Tell students to try their best--you cannot explain words to them on the test.
 * If they ask a question, just tell them to read and follow the directions on the test.
