This Message Center is organized and operated by David Vitale Linked below are actual test items from the 2005 WKCE-CRT.  These questions can be used to help teachers and students anticipate the 2006 testing format and think about strategies for answering certain types of questions.  These questions WILL NOT appear on the 2006 test. 

Keep in mind that these are nothing more than practice tests.  They will not prepare students to do well on this (or any other) test.  To prepare students is to help them think critically and understand content independently. Being familiar with the format, however, might mitigate anxiety that some students experience.
