The Ball Is In Your Court
Your class is your team, and you have trained for this. Your offense and defense are on the court and the timer is counting down till the EOC test. 5… 4… 3… Will you try to score the game winning shot for your class?
The death of Kobe has students talking about him, who he was, and wanting to know more. With the STAAR test right around the corner, why not give them a practice test using his own writing?
We created a mock exam that includes STAAR reading questions (individual and paired) using his poem, “Dear Basketball,”and his “Letter To My Younger Self.” This mock exam also includes a revising and editing section that talks about who Kobe was, an expository prompt, and a persuasive prompt. It also includes the key.
Here, check it out for yourself!
Kobe! 3 Pointer!
This is your last practice before the big game. You can make that winning shot. You got this, teacher!
