Preparing your students for the STAAR test is such a challenge.

It’s even more difficult now that kids and teachers are working remotely or in a hybrid model, with some students at school and some online!

In order to give kids the practice they need for their big test, I created a new resource!

It’s a Google Slides version of Camp Reading Ready! Check it out here: Camp Reading Ready for Google Slides.

This camp includes ten different stations aligned to the TEKS to help students practice and prepare the skills they need to be successful.

This resource is for grades 3-5. Special versions of several activities are included for fourth and fifth grade.
