This pack includes DIGITAL AND PRINTABLE FORMATS of differentiated tests that assess standards covering integration of knowledge and ideas anchor standards. Each standard has twelve individual assessments (6 fiction and 6 nonfiction), so these are perfect for standards-based grading! There are twelve texts included in this pack (six fiction and six nonfiction). I have written four levels of each text in fiction and nonfiction genres (2nd-5th grade levels), as well as three levels of questions for each standard (3rd-5th grade standards). This is to allow for differentiation for your learners. I created a variety of long and short passages, as well as questions for each standard for each passage. The questions are not numbered so that you can mix and match them to create a longer test covering the skills you desire, or use them independently. USE THESE for small groups, stations, or differentiated testing!Head over to performingineducation.com/upper-elementary-deals/ to check out all of the 50% OFF deals.✅ TODAY IS THE LAST DAY TO ENTER THE GIVEAWAY FOR ONE OF FIVE $100.00 Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards! ...
