LiteracyLink > Locator Tests

The LiteracyLink GED Locator Tests help teachers evaluate learners’ proficiency in each of the five GED subject areas (reading, writing, science, social studies and math). Test results indicate whether a learner is ready for GED level study or needs to first build skills and content area knowledge at the pre-GED level for each subject

Depending on the learner’s skills, a teacher may decide to:

Place the student at the Pre-GED level in all subject areas
Place the student at the GED level in all subject areas
Place the student at the Pre-GED level in some areas and at the GED level in others

The links below will take you to pages from the PBS LiteracyLink Teacher’s Guide saved as pdf files. The ten pages of guidelines will help you get started; the 22 pages of tests are reproducible masters you may copy to administer as a comprehensive test of all five subjects, or offer one or two at a time, as appropriate.
