AR Tests for Classrooms

A special thank you to Brooks Spencer, reading specialist from Cedar Lee Middle School, for providing the following AR tests for Jack Templar books 1 and 2.

These can be added to any school based AR program as a Teacher Created Test. When the test is created, the first answer, a, has to be the correct answer. Then, when it’s put in, the AR system will scramble the answers when the students take the test.
