Raise scores with Buckle Down's ELA review featuring 100% coverage of all tested Learning Standards and Performance Indicators that make up the New York English Language Arts Core Curriculum for grades 3-8. Divided into two sections, Reading and Writing, the workbook includes comprehensive coverage of both subjects. Writing is updated to match the New York State Test, incorporating a listening component, paired passages, and editing.

• Reading sections cover vocabulary, comprehension, reading graphics, finding information, making connections, determining an author's purpose, and analyzing story elements.
• Writing lessons cover all aspects of the writing process, including prewriting, drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading.
• Two external practice test forms are matched in format and style to the New York ELA Test, and include the areas tested at the Grade 3 level.
• Workbooks and practice tests are newly revised to match the NYS ELA Test foils, and now include A-B-C-D for all questions instead of A-B-C-D/F-G-H-J.

Every student book comes with a FREE Form A Practice Test (pretest) and Form B Practice Test (posttest).
