About the Book

""Helps building and district-level administrators realize that they don't have to abandon sound and effective instructional practices to prepare students for high-stakes tests.""-Sheila Smith, Science SpecialistJackson Public Schools, MS

""I encourage trainers to discuss this text and its applications with teachers to enhance the performance of students on state and national tests. This book meets a very specific need in classrooms.""-J-Petrina McCarty-Puhl, TeacherRobert McQueen High School, Reno, NV

"Improve student performance on high-stakes tests with research-proven practices for teaching to standards!"

Standardized tests are one of the leading measures of student achievement and educator accountability today, so it is important to give students the necessary skills to perform well on state exams and to align instructional practices with standards. This step-by-step manual outlines a straightforward, powerful model for infusing state standards and knowledge benchmarks into lesson plans and day-to-day assessments to boost overall achievement.

Grounded in the results of more than 30,000 studies, the best practices shared by the authors are linked specifically to the two types of knowledge-declarative and procedural-assessed on high-stakes tests and are ranked according to their effectiveness for each type. To help educators maximize testing results while meeting state standards and ultimately deepening student learning, the text provides a solid framework that empowers teachers to easily: Unpack state standards by grade level into measurable unitsIdentify the key elements of state testsDetermine and assess critical benchmarksSelect the most appropriate and meaningfulstrategies based on new data on the effectiveness of various instructional practices

From reproducible templates to tangible tactics for mapping lesson plans, this resource offers comprehensive tools for teachers to nurture learning and ensure success in all students.

Student scores on standardized tests are one of the leading measures of student achievement and educator accountability today. What this means is that teachers must know how to prepare their students with all the necessary skills for solid success on state exams. In this new handbook by award-winning educators Donna Walker Tileston and Sandra K. Darling, teachers will find a step-by-step guide to accomplishing that critical goal. In five concise chapters, the authors clarify and simplify for teachers the process of unpacking their own state standards and using a data base that aligns best practices to all of the state standards and ranks those instructional practices according to their effectiveness. This text provides a model to help teachers determine what benchmarks really require students to know and be able to do at different grade levels. Teaching Strategies That Prepare Students for High-Stakes Tests gives educators a framework for teaching so that lesson plans and assessments will map to the standards and benchmarks, with the goal of deeper learning and higher student achievement. The book includes ready-to-use strategies and a collection of reproducible templates, resources, bibliography, and index.
