Test Prep Activities for State Testing

Testing will be upon many of our classrooms before we know it. Several years ago I created Testing Tips posters and rhymes that have become a valuable resource for helping my students for the dreading week of testing. I display my poster set as a bulletin board right at the beginning of each school year and find it provides constant reinforcement for test prep.  The set has 18 posters with a bulletin board caption. Go grab yourself a copy {HERE}.




I also do the cutest writing activity using this book:
It is included in the poster set.



I have a copy of this book on video from United Streaming.
 
Another wonderful, engaging test prep idea is my Grade the Teacher activity.
Students get to grade the teacher's mistakes on work, and it is always incredibly engaging and versatile.
You can get it HERE

I recently started a Facebook Group for teachers to share ideas, questions, and inspiration.
