About STAAR Testing
The State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness test, also known as the STAAR, is a state testing program developed by the Texas Education Agency. The assessments are designed to measure students’ understanding of grade-level content and their readiness for the next academic level. STAAR provides valuable insights into student progress and helps ensure that standards are being met across Texas schools.
STAAR is administered online except in rare cases where accommodations aren’t compatible with the online format. The exams are administered in three windows throughout the school year, the fall, spring, and summer. For elementary students, testing is done in the spring.
STAAR exams begin in 3rd grade.
- 3rd graders are tested in ELA/reading and math
- 4th graders are tested in ELA/reading and math
- 5th graders are tested in ELA/reading, math, and science
How Do You Prepare for STAAR?
Start by reviewing the STAAR released test questions from the Texas Education Agency to understand the test’s content and structure. Then, create your own questions and assessments to help students with the topic they need to study. Progress Learning makes specific standards aligned practice and exam review easy with a variety of tools for teachers, including a comprehensive assessment and assignment builder.
For elementary educators, your approach to STAAR test prep may vary by student and subject. Consider forming small groups, incorporating gamification into your instruction, or scheduling daily practice time to keep students engaged. By tailoring your teaching strategy to your students, you will improve their TEKS mastery and STAAR success.
