  • Winning Strategies for Test Taking, Grades 3-8

  • A Practical Guide for Teaching Test Preparation
  • This is a much-needed resource for teachers who want their elementary and middle school students to be confident test takers, but who also want to avoid 'teaching to the test' all year. Denstaedt, Kelly, and Kryza provide a practical, 3-week unit of test-taking skills that will help teachers prepare students for tests using methods that are engaging and meaningful to students in Grades 3u8. Their fun approach teaches a set of effective metacognitive skills that transfer out of the classroom into students' lives and allows teachers to raise the appeal of test-taking as well as limit its domination of classroom time. This book is full of reproducible resources such as planning guides, models and examples of self-talk and think-alouds, annotated state exams, and more. The strategies help students excel at different types of test formats, including:Reading and analyzing textsMultiple choice questionsTrue-or-false questionsConstructed response writingWriting to a promptThe authors' analysis of state tests from around the country, which extrapolates the thinking and responding tasks that learners are expected to accomplish, will be invaluable to educators at all levels.
