This review is from: SAT: English Test Prep (The Daily Spark): 180 Easy-to-Use Lessons and Class Activities! (Paperback)
I had my 11th grade students do two exercises at a time, twice a week as our daily starter activity, about 5 minutes/day. At the end of the semester, students scored 5-10 points higher on a practice language arts SAT packet (about 30 questions) than did the students the previous semester who had not done the Daily Spark activities. Usually I did not even need to discuss why the answers were correct. I'm impressed.
The questions were about all that stuff that we teach, that the students think they will never need: vocabulary, commas and semicolons, passive voice, inferencing, etc. Students do need to be warned that the real college entrance exams have longer reading sections than the short paragraphs in these activities.
