Escape room style activity for STAAR review
This activity is a puzzle based, escape room style challenge activity where students receive clues, answer questions from released STAAR tests, get hints, and try to beat the clock to escape an alien ship.
I used a paired text from the 2017 5th grade released reading STAAR, it would be easy to simply delete the questions and have them complete questions from another grade level or even another subject.
They basically get a puzzle, then must answer 3 STAAR questions before you give them a hint

Multiple Choice Brain Teasers
The following brainteasers are not exactly like questions you see on standardized tests. However, there are a lot of similarities. Now that tests are more rigorous and require a higher level thought process, students need to take time thinking through questions and reading more carefully. Students are often impulsive and do not read carefully. They miss either what the question is asking or they miss tiny, yet important details. Also, they are easily thrown off by the distracter answer.

Grammar in Motion: Compound Sentences
This is a fun way to learn about grammar by mixing movement with learning. The teacher will need to read the instructions on each slide while the students get to do actions as they learn about compound sentences and using commas before coordinating conjunctions. It is important to set rules prior to this activity to ensure that students are moving with silence and with hands to themselves. For instance, make it a rule to fold arms while instructions are read aloud by using the signal, “Ready Pos

This is a great way to start working on STAAR passages with your students after the holidays. It is a very bright idea a coworker shared with me about four years ago to start implementing STAAR simulations in the classroom. I modified it a bit and gave it a name as well designed the thinking tracks that go along with it. It is a extremely engaging way to apply all knowledge previously taught in the classroom. Students will definitely enjoy the process. I hope it helps someone out there!
