Texas STAAR Practice Tests & Study Guides
Full-length STAAR practice tests aligned to the 2023 TEKS redesign and the Texas Education Agency's current item specifications. Every book mirrors the redesign's new item types — evidence-based selected response, drag-and-drop, multi-part questions — not the legacy multiple-choice-only format.

STAAR is administered each spring. TEA tests reading language arts (RLA) and math every year in Grades 3-8, science in Grades 5 and 8, and social studies in Grade 8.
About Texas STAAR test prep
The State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) measures Texas student achievement against the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). The 2023 redesign replaced the legacy all-multiple-choice format with a mix of question types — evidence-based selected response, drag-and-drop, hot-spot, inline-choice, and multi-part questions worth more than one point.
Every ZeroRetake Texas STAAR book is authored against the TEA's current item specifications. Reading passages span the literary and informational genres STAAR uses, at the grade-appropriate Lexile band. Math items follow TEA's calculator policy (calculators allowed Grades 5 and up; not allowed Grades 3-4). Science items include the open-ended "constructed response" item type the redesign introduced.
Spanish versions
Texas schools administer STAAR in Spanish for Grades 3-5 reading (RLA español) and math (matemáticas). ZeroRetake Spanish practice books carry the same reporting categories and item types as the English editions, written in Spanish so Spanish-speaking students can practice in the language of the real test.
Every Spanish book on this page carries an hreflang link back to its English equivalent, so parents searching in Spanish land on the right edition.
