#2 valane on 11 Mar 12Here is another little article I found. It is more geared for those who are going to teach multiple subjects, middle school, or at the high school level. The article gives pointers for teachers on how to prepare their students for those wonderful state tests that are given at the end of the year; Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR). This article introduces using two-sided flashcards were the students over the school year create them by writing an example and its literary purpose on one side and on the other side the term and its definition. It also has pointers for teaching strategies for reading passage analysis which is on those tests. I felt that I should put this one up because in elementary through high school the students are not only being assessed by the classroom teacher; but also by the state itself. Preparing the students for those tests and starting early will only help.
