FSA Simulation for 6th Grade Math: 64 qsts; NO PREP Distance Learning Packet
I created this FSA Simulation to simulate the varying levels of rigor on the actual 6th Grade Math FSA. The test includes Session 1 and Session 2, each with 32 questions. It also includes an answer sheet for the student, and an answer key for the teacher, parent, or for the student to self-correct. This test was designed to simulate the Florida FSA, but the standards are very similar to most other states. Therefore this also makes a great practice test for: Georgia Milestones Indiana
