What educators are saying
Great practice as we get ready for our reading SOL. The students always ask for more, so this really helped them. Thank you!
Description
This packet was created to help remediate essential skills to prepare students for success for their end-of-course (11th grade) Reading Test. (I teach in Virginia, and this material was created for use in preparation for SOL testing, but could easily be used for comparable test-prep in other states.)
While I created this mini-lesson specifically for SOL test review, the passage and questions could easily be used for nonfiction reading tests
The PDF contains:
**A link to the passage used-- I used the first chapter of the nonfiction book, The Lost City of the Monkey God, by Douglas Preston. I think this book is fascinating and is worthy of purchasing for your class library. My resource document contains a link to the first chapter of the book, available for free online via an AMAZON preview.
**A link to the Google Slideshow that contains the mini-lessons with practice exercises that accompany the skills.
**23 multiple choice questions, designed for this passage, using SOL stems.
**Answer key.
