Preparing for the 8th Grade MAAP State Exam Interactive Binders

My Project

My students are exceptional! They work extremely hard and try their best to meet my high expectations. My students come from a very impoverished area in Central Mississippi. They lack some resources and test prep material needed to effectively prepare them to pass their state exam. The binders will allow me to prepare materials for students to study, review, and complete in preparation for their MAAP state exam. This will serve as an additional effort to expose my student to academic material as well as retain the information to reach proficient or advance status on the exam.

As an educator, I will ensure that my students have the necessary materials needed to pass their MAAP exam.

The students will also be able to use the binders to complete study tasks that will be used both inside and outside of class.
