Piedmont Education Services is thrilled to be able to offer you these completely original, low cost, color with black & white, test preparation materials suitable for all nationally standardized achievement tests. As parents and educators ourselves, we know that taking an achievement test for the first time can be an unnerving experience, especially for younger children.  And even older students need to brush up on their test-taking skills from time to time.  

Therefore, we've developed a completely Brand New set of practice test books to give your student an advantage on traditional nationaly standardized achievement tests. The Achievement Test ADVANTAGE test prep booklets are excellent BASIC practice test materials that will give confidence to students as they become more familiar with methods and grade-appropriate content on any of the major nationally standardized achievement tests.

Achievement Test Advantage practice booklets include:

• A Basic Practice Test of 15-20 pages
• Format and subject content similar to all nationally standardized achievement tests
• Directions for Administration that help students learn how to effectively manage their test time
• Background and Instructional Objectives of Test Prep
• Professional & engaging illustrations & full color photos
• Grade appropriate subject matter and test format (for workbook style tests with multiple-choice, fill-in-the-bubble answers)
• Covers Reading, Language Arts, Math, Maps/Reference, Study Skills, Science and Social Studies
• Answer Key in the back of the Directions for Administration

There are Four Different Levels of Practice Test in the Achievement Test ADVANTAGE books.

Level 1 contains material appropriate for Grades 1 and 2.
Level 2 contains material appropriate for Grades 3 through 5.
Level 3 contains material appropriate for Grades 6 through 8.
Level 4 contains material appropriate for Grades 9 through 12.

Please be aware that these practice books are only giving students help in improving test-taking skills.  They do not teach the actual subject information that is on the specific test. Nor are they exactly like the specific tests, but are approximating the experience in the format, layout, and style that the student will have in the actual test.  The actual specific tests are copyrighted by the different test publishers and, therefore, by law, are not allowed to be copied in any way by the creators of these practice books.  To do so would not only be a violation of US copyright law, and thus subject to civil and/or criminal penalties, it would actually give some students an unfair advantage and/or skew the results of the specific test which is seeking to measure academic skills achieved over a period of time.  While studies have shown that practice in test-taking skills will help students improve their test scores, these practice books are no substitute for diligent teaching in the various subjects throughout the year. We hope this inexpensive practice test will be of great benefit to you and your student in preparation for this year’s achievement testing.
