Close Reading / ECA Practice

There are a number of places that you can find practice ECA material on the internet to help you get ready for the English 10 End of Course Exam.

ECA Term Flashcards

ECA Prep on Quia

ECA Jeopardy

Next week, we will be reviewing many of the skills we have been working on all year (close reading, breaking down the prompt, BEST Answer, constructed responses, essay writing). You know better than anyone whether or not you are ready for this test. As I have tried to instill in you all year, you are ultimately responsible for your own learning and success. If you feel that you need to do some extra practice prior to Tues. May 10, and Wed. May 11 when we will be taking the English 10 ECA, use some of the links above, or some of the paper copies of practice assignments that I provided you in your folder after taking the Acuity test.

About the Author

My life has taken many paths. I grew up in Farmland, Indiana and graduated from Monroe Central High School in 1979. Yes I know that seems like a long time ago to most of you. After I graduated from High School, I went into the U. S. Navy. Not a lot of women enlisted in the Navy back then. Boot camp was still segregated (that means there were only women in my boot camp) and yes, boot camp is as bad as they say it is. I survived though and began seeing a little more of the world than just our lovely corn and soy bean fields of Indiana. I was an advanced avionics technician and worked on F14 Tomcat jets in the Navy. Back then women couldn't go on ships but I was stationed in Bermuda for a little over a year. Bermuda is beautiful and the people are warm and friendly. I married my husband while in the Navy and we eventually moved to Minnesota.
