This brand-new title is both a test preparation manual and a handbook of effective reading, writing, listening, and test-taking strategies. It presents an overview of the Grade 6 ELA Test and two full-length practice tests with all questions answered and explained. Separate chapters prepare students to answer the test’s reading comprehension questions, its Listening and Writing questions, and questions in its Reading and Writing section. Helpful appendices describe literary genres, provide a glossary of literary terms, and offer a sample scoring rubric.
