SELF-GRADING = MAJOR TIME SAVER + IMMEDIATE FEEDBACK! SUPER INTERESTING TO STUDENTS!

In this WebQuest Practice Test #13, students read a problem-solution argument about the current problem with recycling, study two detailed government-issued infographics, read ANOTHER problem-solution argumentative essay, and read an article about the Department of Energy's plan to battle the recycling problem. Students practice their literacy and critical thinking skills to answer some SBAC, PARCC, STAAR style questions (multiple choice, multiple select, short answer, longer written response, etc.) SELF-GRADING = MAJOR TIME SAVER!

You and your students are in good hands and will be SO READY for any ELA assessment thrown your way because I have ten years experience as a contracted English Language Arts Assessment Writer. Anyone can write a test, but it's not as easy as it looks, and it takes skill to do it right. And how awesome is this self-grading thing? So awesome!

ALIGNS TO SO MANY ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS STANDARDS

Incorporates multiple standards in reading informational text, literacy in science and technical subjects, as well as language because students examine figurative language which drives much of the short story. HIGH-INTEREST and STANDARDS-BASED!

EASY DISTANCE LEARNING ON ANY DEVICE: Students will be using an online Google Form to take a self-grading test which guides them to access authentic, safe, informative sources online. The reading will be thorough, but the way it is set up will feel very manageable to students and not be overwhelming.

The test takes about 30 minutes. These have been tested on a variety of students to get all the kinks out. The kids told me how much they liked this one! For real!

When you buy the bundle, you'll get WebQuest Practice Tests FREE for the rest of the year!
