About the store
I was a public school teacher for several years and loved it! I have taught 6th, 7th, and 8th grade on level math, 7th grade pre-ap math, and all middle levels math intervention. All of my materials are aligned to the new Texas TEKS adopted in 2012. I find students have the most rewarding learning experiences when they are able to work hands on and engage with the material. I have been trained extensively in QTEL (Quality teaching for english learners), Kagan Cooperative Learning Strategies and Structures, and CHAMPS.
I now stay home with 4 kids and have begun writing instructional resources for preschool and lower levels!

These are quick quizzes, most can be taken in 10-15 minutes. Use as one packet to target needs, or use each week leading up to STAAR! Perfectly aligned to the TEKS (Texas).
Included:
Quiz for each readiness standard

This is the PERFECT bundle for the first week of school!

*28 question pre-test to see where the students are at with 7th grade content that will be expanded on in 8th grade. The first 3 questions are "get to know you" questions, and the rest rang

It’s great because each partner has to rely on the other and has to help them. Getting a correct answer is dependent on the other person’s previous answer.
Each student has an independent practice question at the bottom that you can take for a daily grade or quiz grade!
