"This seems like it might be helpful, but in light of the rigor on Texas',
and most other state's standards, these suggestions are behind the times,
inaccurate, and potentially counterproductive. I urge educators to teach
metacognition skills/strategies if they want to help students with
standardized tests.

"If the story was a fictional story, the dog could have cooked eggs and
read a book. His "stupid answers" would depend on the reading passage.
Was the only answer "was tired"? No, he could have been angry that he had
to stop playing and leave the park. I agree the skills discussed are good
test taking tips. But stating that there are obvious "stupid" or "wrong"
answers without having read the passage could be misleading. Just because
an answer is "stupid" in real life, doesn't mean it can't be the answer
for a story a child is reading. I teach my students to 1. read the
questions 2. carefully read the story 3. eliminate unreasonable answers 4.
answer the question. Step #2 is the most important step.
