Tabe

The Tests of Adult Basic Education (TABE) consist of :

  • Reading Comprehension
  • Math Computation
  • Math Applications (word problems)
  • Language
  • Spelling

In order to prepare for the comprehension test, a student should practice reading higher-level excerpts, paying close attention to main idea, topic sentences and vocabulary development. The math tests contain addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers, fractions, and decimals.  Integers, percents, and basic algebraic expressions are also included. The language portion of the test measures capitalization, punctuation, usage, sentence structure, and paragraph development skills.

These are suggested sites for math tutorials:

SOSMATH.COM - This is a great site for basic review of fractions, decimals and percents. Choose Algebra from the menu to find examples and practice items for each.

Mathematics Tutorials

Choose areas from Review of Math Skills for Introductory Courses then choose specific units from the Table of Contents. Each unit provides explanation and practice before moving on to the next unit.
