Preparing for the SBA in Grade 7

Washington administers the Smarter Balanced Assessment (SBA) for ELA in Grade 7. StudyPug's lessons are aligned to the same standards tested on the SBA, helping students build the reading and writing skills they need to perform well. Regular practice with the types of questions found on the SBA gives students the familiarity and confidence to succeed.
