A current guide to the 2.5-hour Praxis 5007 subtest, including the 95-question format, Reading and Language Arts weighting, Social Studies weighting, teaching-task scenarios, literacy skills, civics, geography, economics, and student-evidence practice.
Praxis 5007 combines elementary literacy and social studies content. A strong plan balances reading foundations, language, comprehension, writing, research, speaking and listening, history, government, citizenship, geography, and economics with classroom application.
Use these structure points to align preparation with the official ETS Elementary Education Assessment subtest.
ETS lists 2.5 hours and 95 selected-response questions for Praxis 5007.
Reading and Language Arts accounts for about 62 questions and 65% of the examination.
Social Studies accounts for about 33 questions and 35% of the examination.
About 70% of questions in each subject area apply content to a Task of Teaching.
The Reading and Language Arts portion carries about two-thirds of the subtest. Study should cover print concepts, alphabetic principle, phonological awareness, phonics, word recognition, fluency, language conventions, vocabulary, text structure, comprehension, writing, research, discussion, and presentation.
Social Studies preparation should include history, government, citizenship, geography, human-environment interaction, economics, sources, timelines, and student interpretations. The exam rewards candidates who can connect facts to instructional goals and student understanding.
ETS emphasizes tasks such as evaluating texts, modifying examples, analyzing language, assessing student literacy, anticipating social studies thinking, selecting resources, designing learning experiences, and responding to work samples or discussion snippets.

Praxis Elementary Assessment: Reading and Language Arts and Social Studies 5007 is one of the two subtests in the Praxis Elementary Education Assessment 5006. ETS lists a 2.5-hour computer-delivered subtest with 95 selected-response questions.
HiraEdu prepares candidates around the official ETS structure: Reading and Language Arts has about 62 questions and 65% of the examination, while Social Studies has about 33 questions and 35%. ETS notes that approximately 70% of the questions in each subject area assess content applied to a Task of Teaching, so preparation should connect literacy and social studies knowledge to classroom decisions, student evidence, instructional materials, differentiation, and assessment choices.
Allocate about 65% of review time to Reading and Language Arts and about 35% to Social Studies.
For each literacy or social studies topic, practice an instructional decision: resource selection, differentiation, feedback, discussion prompt, assessment, or next-step planning.
Review passages, student writing, discussion excerpts, timelines, maps, primary-source snippets, and student arguments so content knowledge is tied to classroom evidence.
Complete 95-question mixed sets under 2.5-hour timing, then review missed items by subject, content topic, and teaching task.
Use the guide to self-serve, or talk to a coordinator if you need help mapping timelines, official requirements, or troubleshooting day-of logistics.
