Paraprofessionals, also known as teaching assistants, are an invaluable tool in today's classrooms. As class sizes swell, teachers rely on paraprofessionals to assist with the complicated tasks of classroom management and content instruction. Like teachers, the field of paraprofessionals is growing and considered to be one of the highly desired recession-proof careers. Before one can enter this field, they'll have to pass the Praxis II: ParaPro. LearningExpress's Praxis II: ParaPro Test Prep will give test takers an extra advantage to score well on the test. Praxis II: ParaPro Test Prep includes: In-depth, targeted review chapters for each Praxis II: ParaPro subarea-reading, writing, and math Two practice tests with detailed answer explanations that reflect the actual format of the official test Strategies to help ease test anxiety and increase performance The ParaPro Assessment exam measures the skills and knowledge in reading, writing, and math of prospective and practicing paraprofessionals. It also measures their ability to apply those skills and knowledge when assisting in classroom instruction. The ParaPro Assessment was designed to satisfy the requirements of the federally legislated No Child Left Behind Act. Inside this book, learners will find information about what it means to become a teachers assistant, how the diagnostic exam is composed, LearningExpress's best strategies to approach the exam and rid oneself of fear, and key elements of math, reading, and writing skills and applications, among other advantageous bits of information. Users of this book will also receive access to an additional online practice test with instant scoring and detailed score reports, so that readers will know exactly where to focus their study. Considering that there are approximately 200,000 Teaching Assistant positions annually, it is only to one's advantage to begin prepping for this exam if this is their intended job field in education. It is known that school enrollments are projected to increase slowly over the next decade, but faster growth is expected among special education students and students for whom English is a second language, and they will increase as a share of the total school-age population. These students are the ones who most need teacher assistants. Children with special needs require significant personal attention, and teachers rely heavily on teacher assistants to provide much of that attention. An increasing number of after-school programs and summer programs also will create new opportunities for teacher assistants. With an ever-increasing demands for paraprofessionals, LearningExpress's Praxis II: ParaPro Test Prep will help individuals recognize their full potential, while instilling in them a better understanding of the exam and how to tackle it on the day of the official test.

It's handy for general knowledge about what the para educator test entails and has a practice test (maybe more than one) that enables one to see where one stands with simple English and Math. There are A LOT of mistakes in this book. Nothing critical, but this book suffers from a lack of proofreading. If you need to take the test, I'd recommend this book -- if the price is right.

I was able to pass the test with no problem, the cd was well worth the price of the book, along with test taking tips.

awesome book, has everthing you need to prepare for the test. has answers and instructions on how to do the questions especially math

Nothing in the book was on the test in Texas! I studied this book from cover to cover and nothing in this book was covered on the test in Texas. If you’re from Texas you would do better just going to the classes. There were also many errors in this book. This book desperately needs a proof reader!!

So pleased I purchased this book. It has everything you need to study. The practiced testes were very helpful. Helped me get ready for and pass my exam. Definitely recommend!!

Great book ! There are a lot of pratice tests and quizes so you know what you need to work on and if you are ready or the test. I did find one error in the book but its easy to find the correct answer anyhow :)

This book, along with the online book available through the library was great. I noticed several mistakes in the question and answer sections that could be confusing. Being able to read a booklet is easier than online.

I bought this book to study for the parapro assessment test. It was very helpful as I have been out of school for over 30 yrs.
