TUCSON, Ariz., Oct. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Learning A-Z™, a PreK–6 educational resource company and part of Cambium Learning® Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: ABCD), has launched a new website, ReadyTest A-Z.
The website delivers the downloadable resources grade 3, 4, and 5 teachers need to provide effective high-stakes English Language Arts (ELA) assessment practice and instruction, and a student-centric environment where kids log in to develop their test-taking skills online. Modeled after Learning A-Z's award-winning Raz-Kids website, kids can access ReadyTest A-Z 24/7 to develop real high-stakes testing skills, while teachers can monitor student progress and then provide customized instruction to help students maximize their learning.
ReadyTest A-Z's test-readiness materials are divided into two categories: (1) Practice Tests and (2) Test-Taking Skill and Strategy Lessons. The website includes a series of grade-appropriate practice sessions in online, printable, and projectable formats that introduce students to the various source and item types found on end-of-year high-stakes ELA assessments. Also included is a collection of printable and projectable teacher-led lessons that model critical test-taking skills and strategies using the gradual-release "I Do, We Do, You Do" model.
"Teachers, students, and administrators are all under a great deal of pressure to deliver results on end-of-year summative assessments," said Bob Holl, president and cofounder of Learning A-Z. "We created ReadyTest A-Z to give students the practice and instruction they need to feel comfortable and confident when taking high-stakes ELA assessments."
Learning A-Z is committed to providing educators with blended learning solutions that help them save time, save money, and reach every child in the classroom. Special introductory pricing is currently available for ReadyTest A-Z through December 31, 2014.
