    Tests as a Genre
    By KP/NH

    Clip to ScrapBook
       
    Our school used Put Thinking To The Test from Stenhouse Publishersfor a book study. It's written (by actual classroom teachers) in an easy-read style and is all about teaching high stakes tests as a genre. We got lots of practical and easy to implement ideas for helping our students use thinking strategies to better "show what they know" on tests. The cover says grades 3-8, but the 2nd grade teachers enjoyed the book as well and used some of the ideas when planning lessons. This link will give you more information. We felt it was well worth the $21!
