I just learned you can do assessments on Desmos, but it seems so time consuming to setup. Is there a digital bank teachers share to more quickly develop assessments? Thx.

I think most testbanks have some kind of license attached. I know that any textbook you use has a test bank option. Check with your textbook publisher.

I have old cds of tests banks from Mcdougal Littel
Pearson has a set of test banks too.

Search up your district’s acceptable publishers and they may work with you. They always gave me great samples at the math conferences.

thank you, i will look into that... great idea... my other concern is "cheating" for the students who are remote learners.. does anyone have a "solution" for that... like how can you be sure it is YOUR student that is taking the assessment online?

Our district math person said unfortunately that there is no easy we can guarantee that no one is cheating so we will the best that we can. Just found out today that we are doing NWEA testing. Not sure how that will work.

Forgive the basic question but can you contract around state statutes? For ex, customer wants to insert state contractor payment statutes and have that state law govern. I’m assuming the way around this is to have another more preferable state as choice of law?

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury.

I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?

Does anyone know a great 7th grade math workbook? Our school system does not buy the students books.

I feel like I’ve spent so much money on Amazon and TPT but it never ends up being what I want. It’s usually too easy. I would be grateful for any ideas, suggestions or actual workbooks names. Thanks.

I finally was able to convince my principal that we need a consistent math intervention at the MS level (grades 5-8). (Right now, we are just "doing our own thing," which isn't helping students progress much.) Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be beneficial to have some sort of progress monitoring tool as part of the program, if possible. Our classes run roughly 55 minutes (which is too long for an intervention, in my humble opinion).

Thanks for any advice.

It can be used live in a meet and on an independent virtual day. In my google meets, I’m able to give feedback on any question they have trouble with in real time.
