Test Prep: Grade 4 

Home-taught children who are not prepared for their yearly standardized tests are at a distinct disadvantage from the government- and privately-taught children. 

 

If you reside in a state that requires standardized tests, you should know that most certified teachers teach with the test in mind. In other words, teachers understand the types of questions that will appear on the standardized tests, and they will spend weeks preceding the tests covering the necessary information. If you do not do likewise, your children stand a chance of performing poorly in comparison.


For those of us in a state where some form of testing is required but never scrutinized, preparing is not as critical. However, some of you are in states where the test results are not only analyzed but used as a basis for whether you may continue to home educate. Why not ensure your children are "playing on a level playing field"? The Test Prep series offers students the essential groundwork to prepare for standardized tests.


Based on subject areas covered by most state standardized tests, these colorful, inviting workbooks provide a good sampling of all the skills required for each grade level. Practice pages, strategies, tips, and full-length practice tests build test-taking confidence and skills in reading comprehension, vocabulary, language, and math. The test tips are beneficial, and the information and instructions are super-easy to follow.


Developed by a leading educational publisher, Harcourt's Test Prep provides a great opportunity for children to review before taking standardized state tests. Engaging, practical, and easy to use, Test Prep will help your children face the tests with the same confidence that their peers will have.

    Excellent

    It is an excellent resource for instructing testing techniques, particularly in a home setting where such practices may not typically be emphasized. It can also serve as evidence of how much your child has learned.

    Great Resource

    This is a great resource to check for any gaps you need to work on. It isn't overwhelming and my daughter doesn't mind doing it each year.

    Good Practice

    This book was the first time my student has ever tried "standardized" testing. I was not sure how that would go and I am glad I got the book. While the content was not a challenge, the actually process of taking a standard test has had some hiccups that I would not have really expected since I was not homeschooled. Things like "you have to answer by filling in the bubble on the answer area" was something my student totally missed. I think this book will be useful in learning how to test. While we don't do testing due to the type of homeschool we are registered at in our state, eventually testing is probably going to be on my kid's radar and knowing how to take those will be important.

    great work to see what still needs to be learned

    We don't start this until January of every year and do 4-5 pages per week. We keep it going through the summer months. We've done kindergarten up to 4th grade and love doing this to just wrap everything up.

    Great Workbook

    This is the first time we have used a test prep book. It's very well laid out and my boys did not have any issues following along and getting it completed.
