Standardized Test Practice for 3rd Grade

Unlike other books that offer advice, this book simply gives the student problems and excercises.

My son gained a lot of confidence from using this book and has done very well in the 3rd grade SAT test. Very impressed!

This book is very helpful. It teaches how to get the best result in standardized tests. It is especially valuable for those students who are lack of test taking experience. My child got better scores after applying the techniques, such as choice eliminations. This book is not challenging enough for my third grader though. I let my child use Beestar (a nice Houston community web site www.beestar.org) for additional weekly practice and compare his scores with the competitive peers. His test taking skills learned from this book has been very useful.

this is a great series of books--i bought 4th and 5th grades also--i'm a guidance counselor in an intermediate school-i used the tips and techniques from these books with individual classes-in kid-involved sessionsd-to help prepare them for standardized testing---many kids said they remembered what we had done. i just wish there were more tips and fewer practice tests--there are zillions of practice tests around the globe--but actually having tips, techniques, strategies--i.e., knowing how to BEAT standardized tests---is much needed! a knowledge-base is, of course, essential. but how many of us have ever taken a standardized test in which we can say that we knew MOST of the information right off the bat?--that is where educational guessing, process of elimination, the "stay with your first response" idea, etc. come in...
