Having trouble getting your students to slow down, pay close attention to passage questions, and prove their answers?

This may be just the resource you need! Give your students the structure that they need to slow down and tackle assignments/assessments with intention.

This resource will help your students to:

• Analyze passage questions for key words and relating reading skills
• Refer back to the text, and...
• Prove answers by providing rationales for correct and incorrect answers

Resource includes:

• Question Analysis Forms

-May be printed blank or text boxes can be added to add specific questions

• Answer Analysis Forms

-Highly customizable answer analysis space

• Customizable/editable anchor charts

-Can be pre-made teacher-created anchor charts

-Can be an active document that students help create

Teaching Tips:

I typically allow:

• One class period to read/annotate the passage (passages not included/resource will work for any passage)
• One class period to analyze the question stems
• One class period to answer questions and provide analysis/rationales of answer choices
• This process can be adjusted as needed for in-class assignments or homework. Pacing can also be adjusted as needed, especially as students become more familiar with the process.

Get ready to start testing out on a positive note with these testing motivational notes for students. Designed to uplift and inspire, these notes are meant to be placed on students' desks before they begin their testing journey. Each card features a unique motivational message tailored to boost confidence, foster a positive mindset, and ignite determination in students as they embark on their testing endeavors.

From encouraging words of affirmation to empowering quotes, these notes serve as a reminder that every student possesses the ability to excel and shine brightly. Whether it's a reassuring note about believing in oneself or a gentle reminder to stay focused and resilient, these cards aim to create an atmosphere of encouragement and support during testing sessions.

Most items to be added to the notes can be found online or in your local grocery store.
