Description
This lesson is designed to help students be successful on standardized testing. You can use the section focused on answering multiple-choice questions, responding to writing prompts, or both depending on the format of the test and your students’ needs.
There is a high and low level version of the lessons and the notes to meet the needs of different classes and students. You could use one level as a whole class activity and another as a small group or independent review.
Students will fill in strategies in the guided note-taking packet and annotate the questions, passages, and prompts as directed throughout the lesson. Following the note taking lesson, students will apply these strategies in a question trail activity.
