Description
Preparing for the STAAR Engish I & II Exams can be stressful and time-consuming. Save time with self-grading Google Forms reading FICTION practice tests with NEW ITEM TYPES that are thoughtfully crafted to help you cover ELA standards.
After studying STAAR English I & II Exams, I came up with fiction reading passages with comprehension questions with new item types to simulate the real test and help your students become better prepared with the test format.
Exposing students to practice tests early can make a HUGE difference in students' preparation and demonstration of mastery.
Great for high school English I & II students or Pre-AP students. Some 8th-grade teachers have found this helpful. Click for middle school passages.

Independent Work - Assign as an in-class formative assessment or send home digitally for homework so you can see what areas may need more reteaching.
