20 tests to help prepare you Grade 6 students for the EQAO Mathematics & Language Assessment tests and increase their confidence with test taking!
Math:
The 10 practice tests were designed to be similar to the actual test the students will be taking. The questions are either multiple choice or open response so that students can get familiar with the question/answer format.
The first 5 tests each feature a different key math skill for targeted practice: number sense & numeration, patterning & algebra, measurement, geometry & spatial sense, and data management & probability. Students struggling in any of these areas will benefit from this skill-specific practice.
The following 5 tests feature mixed math skills with questions that are a combination of all the math skills.
There is no particular sequence to the tests. They can be used in whatever order you choose to fit your student's needs.
Language:
The 10 tests have been designed to be very similar to the actual test the students will be taking. Many of the questions are asked in a similar way so that students can get familiar with the questioning format.
Students will encounter different types of reading experiences as they make their way through the various tests including fiction and nonfiction stories, a newspaper article, a friendly letter, poetry, and informational text. They will then be asked to answer corresponding multiple choice and open response questions.
There is also plenty of writing practice as students are asked to write sentences, paragraphs, short stories, instructions, a description, a movie review, a poem, a letter, and a newspaper article.
There are also multiple-choice questions featuring essential grammar and writing skills.
160 pages including an answer key.
