TEAM-Work Stations
After each mini-lesson, students break into TEAM-work stations that include a combination of independent and partner activities. Their goal is to earn as many checkmarks as possible by completing the assigned tasks.
what Do TEAM-work Stations Look Like?
⭐Teacher Check Station:
Your job is to check in with students and help as needed. Your students will be working on challenging concepts, so they will need your help. Because of this, I do not recommend pulling small groups during this time.
✎ When you witness students working hard and staying on task to complete assignments, check the box in their “Teacher Check” column.

Additional Test Prep Resources
Test-Taking Strategy Posters
Students can become overwhelmed if there are too many test-taking strategies to remember. Therefore, I have students focus on these 5 simple test-taking tips. These posters are included in the test prep kit…but click the button below to grab them for free!
The test prep kit also includes editable directions and multiple templates for grouping students.
Tips to help your stations run smoothly
Tip #1: Set high expectations for your students, and make it clear that rushed and inaccurate work won’t earn them a check mark. I did not check the box if there were two or more errors on one activity. I instead circled the box and had students go back and correct their mistakes. Once the mistakes were fixed, they earned their check. 
More teacher tips are included to help your TEAM-work stations run smoothly!
Tip #2: It’s important to set goals for students to work toward. For instance, if they complete 5 activities, they get a piece of candy. If they complete 10, they get a prize from the treasure chest. If they complete all 16, they get extra recess…whatever works for you!
You Can Do This!
I personally used these lessons and activities with my 4th graders for many years and can tell you firsthand how well they work to prepare students!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I absolutely love all of Krejci Creation products! I have learned so much from her! And her slide shows are the best. I had to get this when I saw it and it did not fail. Paper copies, boom cards, partner work, this has all we need to review for state testing and my students are extremely engaged. -Andrea L.
