ELA Test Prep Bundle - Reading Comprehension & Skills Practice for Secondary ELA

High School Reading Comprehension Passages and Questions Bundle:

Test prep. Standardized testing. Words that suck the very life out of any classroom. As a secondary ELA teacher, you want to make sure your high school and advanced middle school students are well-prepared for their state ELA reading exams. However, you don’t want to waste precious time you don’t have or foster an aversion to reading by testing, and testing, and testing some more.

This ELA Test Prep Mega-Bundle provides a more targeted, time-saving approach to ELA reading comprehension test prep. It allows you to easily identify the areas of struggle among your students, and then provide targeted practice opportunities focused specifically on those challenging areas and standards, monitoring progress over time.

The ELA Reading Test Prep bundle includes:

ELA Reading Assessment #1: An assessment comprised of three rigorous reading passages (short story, informational text, and poetry), each with a set of 35 multiple choice questions identified by standard. This test can be administered at the beginning of the year, of the semester, or of the testing season. After the test, students complete the included performance analysis worksheet to identify their areas of strength and weakness and create an action plan for improvement. The results analyses also serves as your instructional compass to guide future lessons and practice activities.

ELA Snapshot Assessments Volume 1: Use these quick “snapshot” practice assessments, each focused on an individual reading standard, to help students improve the specific skills and standards they've identified as needing the most support. The “snapshot” reading assessments provide a great opportunity for meaningful differentiation, as you can assign different practice assessments to different classes or students based on their individual needs. They work well as homework assignments, station activities, bell work, summary activities, tutoring work and skill reviews.

ELA Snapshot Assessments Volume 2: Students can continue to practice in the areas in which they need most help with this second volume of snapshot assessments. As with the first volume, each snapshot assessment includes a short, ½-page reading passage followed by a number of questions all focused on a single reading standard. In this way, students get the focused practice they need, while you are able to easily monitor progress by individual student and standard.

ELA Reading Assessment #2: This second reading assessment will enable you to monitor student progress overall, as well as by individual standard and student. Like the first, this reading assessment includes three rigorous passages, each followed by a set of questions identified by standard. The assessment also includes a similar results analysis that allows both student and teacher to gauge progress by standard and create an action plan for additional improvement. The resource can be used as formative assessment or as an end-of-year exam.

Making Test Prep Fun: And, because nothing brings more dread—to both students and teachers--than testing season, this resource is included to help you create a test prep program that actually adds some friendly competitive fun to the classroom!

ALL documents within this bundle are offered as fully editable Word documents. This allows you to customize or differentiate the materials for your students’ particular needs. The documents are also offered as PDFs, just to prevent any formatting or technical issues

The texts included within each individual resource of the bundle are at rigor level appropriate for high school or advanced middle school students; authors range from Kate Chopin, Guy de Maupassant, Emma Lazarus and Shakespeare, to John F. Kennedy, Franklin D. Roosevelt and many, many more.
