ABOUT THE COMPANY

Jason Forde and Dagan Ferrier are former teachers in San Antonio. They created Forde-Ferrier, L.L.C in 1998 to provide teachers, students, and parents the most comprehensive educational materials and teaching techniques designed to help all students master the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). Forde and Ferrier used these materials and techniques in their own classrooms, and the results were impressive. Their students consistently achieved pass rates of 100% and commended rates over 80% in all areas.

Forde and Ferrier use research based methods to continually improve their high quality practice materials for all tested areas. A variety of writers contribute to provide comprehensive materials that challenge students, but most importantly, help them learn the skills they need to succeed.

In addition to materials, Forde-Ferrier also continually improves its instructional methods, providing excellent professional development and training in mathematics, reading, writing, and science. These award winning workshops are designed to help teachers understand and effectively teach the essential skills students need to learn to be successful. Teachers leave the workshops confident that they can make sure all students master those skills. Forde and Ferrier have shared their methods with teachers throughout Texas, and their products and services have helped thousands of students achieve the highest levels of success on standardized tests.

Forde and Ferrier strive to build ongoing relationships with teachers, students, and school districts. They truly believe in what they do and are excited when they help others succeed. Schools using their methods and materials have achieved high levels of success on TAAS, TAKS, and now STAAR tests.

COMMON ASSESSMENTS:

In the exact format of the STAAR Test!

We can create STAAR modified tests!

Each assessment we create has the rigor and depth of the STAAR test. We can create assessments based on TEA specifications, district guidelines, or any other parameters. Assessments can be based on sets of skills following your district's timelines, or we can make comprehensive practice STAAR tests. All of our tests are written "on demand" and not printed from a pre-generated computer bank. New items are constantly written, reviewed, and updated by content experts. This ensures each assessment we create is based on the latest information about STAAR and accurately measures mastery of the TEKS. In most cases, results on our comprehensive practice STAAR tests have mirrored actual STAAR test results.

POEMS 2 Grades 2 & 3 POEMS & PLAYS 2 Grades 4-8

READING/WRITING WORKBOOKS

POEMS & PLAYS:

In response to the incredible demand for additional reading practice on poems (grades 2-3) and drama (grades 4-8) we have created our new line of poems and plays workbooks. Every selection in the third grade workbook is a poem. Half the selections in the fourth and fifth grade workbooks are poems while the other half are plays. Each selection comes with a full set of rigorous, STAAR formatted items. These workbooks are a must-have for teachers who want to make sure their students are fully prepared for the STAAR reading assessment.

STAAR WRITE WRITING

Editing & Revision | Test Book

Prepare students for the STAAR Writing Test or simply reinforce writing skills with this workbook. Students will practice all writing STAAR Reporting Categories, including identifying sentence fragments, capitalization and punctuation rules, and grammar mistakes by editing 75 different samples of writing.

STAAR BRIGHT READING:

The STAAR Bright Reading books provide teachers and students with several complete practice reading passages. Each passage has the "look and feel" of the actual STAAR reading test.

SCIENCE CVP STAAR:

CONTENT, VOCABULARY, AND PRACTICE

Grades 2-8 also available in Spanish

UPDATED FOR STAAR!

SCIENCE & SOCIAL STUDIES WORKBOOKS

SCIENCE READING STORIES:

Practice for both the science and reading tests using our new STAAR Science Stories workbook. The book includes over 20 narrative passages which cover science concepts tested on STAAR. Great for both science and reading teachers.

STAAR SCIENCE INVESTIGATION JOURNAL:

This resource will help your students conduct short investigations to make concrete connections to some of the abstract ideas that they are studying in science. Students will have a chance to make observations, conduct investigations, collect data and draw conclusions about what it means. The goal of this resource is to provide a hands on experience to connect to the content that the students are learning in the classroom. By merging the two, we know that this will enhance the learning experience for the student, thus enabling them to retain the information and transfer it to performance assessments over time.

SOCIAL STUDIES:

Category 1, Categories 2-4, & Readiness Review The Category 1 book features 360 STAAR formatted questions. Each item in each Standard in Category I is assessed in at least one question format and includes dual coded process standards, especially 8.29B and 8.29C that are the most common found on the SS STAAR test. These dual coded questions focus on the; sequencing of events in a timeline, completion of cause/effect graphic organizers and analysis, evaluation and interpretation of primary/secondary sources and excerpts, graphic organizers, visuals and maps.

Category 2-4 have STAAR formatted questions focused on Geography and Culture, Government and Citizenship, and Economics, Science, Technology and Society. The rigorous STAAR type questions include the most commonly assessed process skill standards that are tested each year.

STAAR SCIENCE WORD WALL:

This kit includes all necessary vocabulary words from Earth, Life, and Physical Science. Each word is displayed on a piece of cardstock in large, black letters ready to be printed and mounted on a word wall in the classroom. Great visual reference to use throughout the school year to prepare for the Science STAAR test.

CD includes the site license for the entire campus!
