A Google Forms version of the Pre-Algebra Mid-Year Assessment is included for easy digital assessment.

An editable version of the assessment is also included, making it easy to create multiple versions or customize the assessment to fit your needs.

If your Equation Editor is incompatible with mine, simply delete the existing equation and insert your own.

Managing the mid-year checkpoint in Pre-Algebra is a delicate balancing act. You need an assessment that is rigorous enough to gauge true high-school readiness, without causing complete panic right before winter break. This midterm and study guide package hits the absolute sweet spot. It isolates the crucial first-semester skills—like multi-step equations, integer operations, and linear modeling—and pairs them with a matching study guide. It is clean, highly structured, and the recent addition of a self-grading Google Forms option makes it a massive timesaver during peak grading season.
