Highlights of this book
- 18 tests, one for each chapter of the year
- Each test is scored out of 20 points and takes 45 minutes
- An answer key with a point-by-point scoring guide
Each chapter has its own test, ready to print: an information box gives the time, the Common Core codes and the points for every question, out of a total of 20. Questions move from direct application to a final problem that asks for more reasoning.
The answer keys are grouped at the end of the book, with a scoring guide that explains how many points to give for each part. It is the closest thing to a Grade 8 test at school, at home.
Who is it for?
For an eighth grader getting ready for Algebra 1, and for the parents, tutors and homeschooling families who work with them.
