Synopsis: This book, the PSSA Coach, Assessment Anchors, Reading, Grade 8, was written to help students sharpen their reading skills and prepare for the test in the following ways. The Coach consists of units that are divided into chapters and lessons, following the structure of the Pennsylvania Assessment Anchors and Standards. Every lesson focuses on teaching a single skill within an Anchor or Standard. After instructing on the Anchor or Standard, the lesson provides example questions. Each question is followed by a Quick Coach which helps students understand how to answer the question. Finally, the Test Practice section at the end of each chapter gives plenty of review and asks test-like questions to test what students have learned. Students work through the book carefully, remembering that the concept, or "big idea," behind an answer is more important than the answer itself. There are no shortcuts to doing well on the PSSA test. Students should study hard and let the PSSA Coach, Assessment Anchors, Reading, Grade 8, guide them to success.
