You don’t need to struggle with the STAAR. I have deconstructed the STAAR English 1 and English 2 exams for 12 years. These 4 worksheets will help struggling students use clues and context to make educated guesses about the text.
I know you are busy, so rest assured that this product includes:
✔ 2 nonfiction and 2 fiction texts in a ready-to-print PDF
✔ 4 editable Google Doc worksheets with 5 questions each
✔ an answer key for quick grading
✔ tips for quick differentiation of questions and answer choices
ways to digitize the worksheets into a Google Form or Quizizz
And what I REALLY love is:
✔ insights on common distractors from the STAAR so you can point out the tricks and traps ahead of time
✔ the same question format on the STAAR is used on the worksheets, so students build familiarity and confidence!
Perfect for: direct instruction and modeling of the thought process, station work, independent practice, and STAAR tutoring or STAAR summer courses.
At $1 a worksheet, how can you not add this to your toolbox?
Give me a follow as I plan to create more reading worksheets for specific TEKS that trip up students on the STAAR English 1 and English 2 exams. Focus on the skills your students need without overwhelming them.
