EQAO Language & Reading Test Prep Curriculum Map

These tests are created to help Grade 6 students prepare for the EQAO Language Assessment test. The 10 tests have been designed to be very similar to the actual test the students will be taking. Many of the questions are asked in a similar way so that students can get familiar with the questioning format. Students will encounter different types of reading experiences as they make their way through the various tests including fiction and nonfiction stories, a newspaper article, a friendly letter, poetry, and informational text. They will then be asked to answer corresponding multiple choice and open response questions.

There is also plenty of writing practice as students are asked to write sentences, paragraphs, short stories, instructions, a description, a movie review, a poem, a letter and a newspaper article. There are also multiple choice questions featuring essential grammar and writing skills.

There is no particular sequence to the tests. They can be used in whatever order you choose to fit your students needs. The answer key includes answers to all tests.
