Give your fourth grader the confidence to succeed on both New York State tests (Mathematics and English Language Arts) in one book.
This Smart Stars combined edition brings together ten full-length, standards-aligned practice tests (five in Mathematics and five in English Language Arts) that mirror the length, item mix, and question types of the real New York State Grades 3:8 assessments. Every question and passage was written by experienced educators, reviewed for accuracy, and built around New York’s Next Generation Learning Standards at Grade 4 (the standards the state built the test on) so the topics and emphasis match what New York students actually see.
The New York State Testing Program (NYSTP) is administered by the New York State Education Department and delivered on computer through NWEA. On the real test students click to choose answers, type in numbers and written responses, use an on-screen ruler and protractor, read clocks, graphs, and figures, and select evidence from reading passages; this book renders those same skills as clear, print-friendly items: with the same number lines, area and perimeter figures, angles and protractor problems, bar and picture graphs, line plots, fraction and array models, and reading-passage sets: so the thinking is identical even though the answering is on paper.
