FCAT Reading Test Sample and Tips

Florida's Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) has a downloadable booklet with a sample test, answer key and practice tips for the 7th grade reading assessment. Even if you don't life in Florida, you will likely find this test helpful because there are two reading passages and 16 sample questions to answer. It takes approximately 35-45 minutes to complete. The test-taking tips include reading the directions and passages carefully and completing the most difficult questions first.

Sample tests like this help prepare kids for the longer assessment by exposing them to a real testing environment. If done in small doses throughout the year, your child will become familiar with the experience of testing and feel prepared when it is time for the real assessment.
