mapping
By Carolyn

I would go to your state's website as I did to help prepare my kids for the PACT (The Palmetto Achievement Challenge Test) in South Carolina. There they had specific examples of the test questions which would be asked.
As your principal, as I also did, if he/she has some resources which could be shared with the teachers. Our principal was a great help in getting us test booklets to practice with the kids.
Sometimes you just have to make up your own questions in the same format and style as those for the test. We had an in-service yesterday, and the teachers as a group came up with PACT-like questions

to ask the kids. Our Elementary Coordinator is going to get those questions together and circulate them to the teachers as packets. I'd like to suggest that as a grade level you do what we did.
