FCAT reading sites


Lots of web information for Math and READING teachers (from Fort Lauderdale High School)
http://www.firn.edu/schools/broward/ftlaud-hs/ief.htm
This list of web sites is found at Fort Lauderdale High School.  The web sites that I recommend most are found below with active LINKS.  These links were tried and were successful in February 2003.


FCAT practice practice
http://fcatexplorer.com
This requires a code to get in.    You need to know your password and the school needs to enter your last name and first initial in the system.  NOT AVAILABLE for all students.
REVIEW by Mr. FCAT (Mr. McCray):  I believe that fcatexplorer needs to work on making the program quicker to enter.  The PRETEST is too long and the FIRST problem in a math section involved (1 + \/5)/2  -- that's heavy!
I give them high marks for interesting articles and subjects and lots of colors.
They need to make the letters larger to read more easily and the problems should be easier to start ...
If you have 15-30 minutes, it's better to click onthe site below:
