ELA TAKS Benchmark Survey
Name (optional): 


  1. My reading comprehension skills made me feel . . . 


  1. The literary element questions on the reading benchmark (about tone, main idea, point of view, plot etc.) made me feel  


  1. I would rate my performance on the fiction and nonfiction short answer questions as . . . 


  1. I would rate my performance on the crossover short answer question (the one about both reading selections) as . . . 


  1. My knowledge of academic vocabulary on the TAKS benchmark  


  1. For me the two most difficult types of revision questions were:
    grammar
    punctuation
    usage
    spelling
    sentence structure
    organization


  1. My greatest weakness on the TAKS essay was
    planning the content
    organizing
    the introduction
    the conclusion
    letting my voice show
    using enough detail for support
    my transitions
    varying my sentence structure


  1. When I took the benchmark, I realized that my preparation for the test was
      1 2 3 4 5  
    Excellent   Poor


  1. Please list specific things you would like to review or practice to help you prepare for the TAKS Test this spring. Include suggestions about the best way for you to learn them.
