Lesson 2: Library Express

I took the 4th grade reading diagnostic test and scored 6 points.  The test was fairly easy to do and it gave steps that were easy to follow. I really liked the way the test showed you how you scored in  each area of the test and how you could go back and see which questions you got wrong or right.  It helped to have the explainations to understand why you got each question right or wrong.   These tests are easy and appropriate for all ages.

I looked over the course Vocabulary and Spelling 1.  I liked the way it paced the course so it was at your level and it showed you several ways to read a word or figure out something you did not understand or had not seen before.  It worked with your abilities and showed you step by step how to do things to help yourself.   I also like how it broke down the course into easy to manage and understand sessions.  That is helpful when you only have a few minutes here or there.

For the last part of this lesson I chose the ebook "Becoming a teacher."  I wanted to see how a book could explain to someone what becoming a teacher would be like.  It was interested to see how the book started with career options for a teacher and took you all the way through the teacher programs, paying for teacher programs and the tests you have to take and then what you do once you have found your first job.
It definitely was interesting to see what path you have to take and how indepth that path actually is. 

I like this resource for people that need help studying or who want a sneak peek into what is coming on some of these tests.  It is a nice resource to have and suggest to others who are looking for this type of information.   It would have been nice to know it was out there when I was studying for my PPST and Praxis tests.
