Applied Practice in English In today's exam-driven environment, teaching a core English curriculum has never been more challenging. Teachers want to explore the beauty of the written word and instill patterns of higher thinking into the minds of their students. Meanwhile, school administrators are under increasing pressure to improve standardized test scores. Given the limits of a normal school day, who has the time to design classroom plans that satisfy both?
These workbooks are not just typical mock AP-style tests. Although the questions model the format and questions found on the College Board AP exams, the content of each workbook covers the literary titles teachers typically assign as classroom reading assignments. No other publisher offers a comparable, integrated solution. Additionally, all Applied Practice Resource Guides include invaluable aids for teachers, custom-designed for each test format. Multiple-Choice Answer Explanations are included in all resource guides, offering easy-to-share insight that can be referenced as each practice is reviewed and analyzed in class. Applied Practice publications are easy to use. Even inexperienced teachers can effectively prepare students for testing, while enabling students to stay focused on the literature you are teaching. With Applied Practice English resource guides, your students will gain proficiency in test-taking skills while mastering the content of their ELA course curriculum. Teachers will be empowered with rich, in-class testing materials that provide for early formative assessment of their students' strengths and deficiencies.
