    How come?

    Just wondering why you are against Blast Off? Our district has had VERY high test scores for the past few years. I feel like it gets the kids used to the types of wording on tests. Yeah, it may not be the most exciting way to review, but it shows what skills, which kids, need practice with. My kids never complain. They like to see which sections they can ace. They are willing to fix their mistakes. I use a sheet called "Profit From my Mistakes." The kids graph their scores and then fill out which questions they missed and tell why they think they missed it (not following directions, did not understand concept, etc.) If you find something better, let me know. I have been looking though, and I am not finding anthing. (I have used Show what you Know also).
