The Teacher Edition to Test Best on the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) Grade 1/Level 6-7 gives you the answers, timing per test section, and test directions for the corresponding Student Edition. The Teacher Edition is especially critical for first grade where students cannot be expected to read the directions themselves and need to have the directions read aloud. Without these verbal instructions, most pages in the student edition will be meaningless. Each student page appears in the Teacher Edition but the answers are printed directly on this facsimile student page so it is not possible for students to work in the Teacher Edition.

Student Edition no longer available. Out of print.
