This Test Prep Toolkit for reading is much more than passages and questions. These test taking strategies are really strategies your students need for LIFE. The set includes comprehension and vocabulary strategies that will help your students break down the text information into tasks they can confidently attack.

The materials included  were used successfully with my students last year in conjunction with weekly close reading sets, reader’s theater, and partner plays. This year, I am building notebooks with my kids as I introduce and model for them, practice with them, and help them master test taking skills.
