Suggested Tips for SAT Online Course Lunch Program  Staff a computer lab during the lunch hour with one ELA and one Math teacher Monday – Friday that are trained on how to use the SAT Online Course  Allow interested students to spend their lunch hour using the SAT Online Course, receiving support and assignments to complete on their own time  Suggested class size is 25 students  It helps if the students are allowed to bring their lunch  Every student that signs-up should be required to complete one full SAT practice test before coming to their first session The Official SAT Question of the Day Contest  Post a link to the Official SAT Question of the Day on the school website daily  Encourage students to go on the site, review and answer the question, write down their answer, and turn it in at a centrally located suggestion box  The criteria for winning is participation.
