Types of Readers Independent Readers: Students read selections independently without reading assistance. Non-Independent Readers: (Please indicate on record sheet if student is Not an Independent Reader) Read the selection and questions aloud to the student in English or Spanish. Students complete the selected response answers by shading in the bubble. Kindergarten teachers should follow the kindergarten teacher directions as “Listening Comprehension. ” Read the selected response answers to the student. Students complete the constructed response answers by writing a response for each question. Read the constructed response answers to the student. You may write the answer the student says unless he/she is able to do so. Selected and Constructed Response Questions Note: The constructed response questions do NOT assess writing proficiency and should not be scored as such. Constructed Response - Quarters 1 and 2 Students answer 2 Short Response Constructed Response Questions about the passages. Selected Response - Quarters 1 - 4 Students answer 10 Selected Response Questions about the passages. Constructed Response - Quarters 3 and 4 Students answer 2 Research Constructed Response Questions about the passages. Scoring Options Class Check-Lists (Reading Learning Progressions form) Write and Revise There is a learning progression “Class Check-List” for each standard assessed. This is to be used by the teacher for recording or monitoring progress if desired (optional). Write and Revise are added to the pre-assessments and CFAs in quarters 2, 3 and 4. They are not “officially” scored on any form, but will be scored on SBAC.

Write and Revise The Common Core standards are integrative in nature. Student proficiency develops and is assessed on a continuum. The HSD, Common Formative Assessment (CFA) for quarter three includes three write and revise assessed categories to prepare our students for this transition in conjunction with our primary focus of Reading Informational Text. Quarter 3 1. Students “Read to Write” integrating basic writing and language revision skills. Write and Revise Assessed Categories for Quarter Three a. Writing: Write and Revise (revision of short text) b. Language: Language and Vocabulary Use (accurate use of words and phrases) c. Language: Edit and Clarify (accurate use of grammar, mechanics and syntax) Rev. Control: 02 -24 -14 HSD – OSP and © Susan Richmond 5

Important Please Read Before Starting Assessment Quarter Three Preparing for Performance Tasks The quarter three CFA prepares students for performance tasks. There are many combinations of claims, targets and standards that can be used within a performance task. 1 Performance tasks have two parts (Part 1 and Part 2). In quarter three students will complete the tasks highlighted below. Performance Tasks Have Two Parts The underlined sections are those scored on SBAC. Part 1 • • • Part 2 Read two paired passages. Take notes while reading (note-taking). Answer SR and CR research questions about sources • Plan your essay (brainstorming pre-writing). • • Write, Revise and Edit W. 5 Writing a Full Composition or Speech IMPORTANT – NEW Please make copies of the note-taking form for each student in your class if you choose to use it. 1. Note-Taking: Students take notes as they read passages to gather information about their sources. Students are allowed to use their notes to later write a full composition (essay). Note-taking strategies should be taught as structured lessons throughout the school year in grades K – 6. A note-taking form is provided for your students to use for this assessment or you may use whatever formats you’ve had past success with. Please have students practice using the note-taking page in this document before the actual assessment if you choose to use it. 2. Research: In Part 1 of a performance task students answer constructed response questions written to measure a student’s ability to use research skills. These CR questions are scored using the SBAC Research Rubrics rather than the short response rubric used in quarters 1 and 2. The SBAC Research Rubrics assesses research skills students need in order to complete a performance task. 3. Planning: In Part 2 of a performance task students plan their essay. Students are allowed to use their notes. This is the brainstorming or pre-writing activity. Students can plan their writing using a graphic organizer. Note: During the actual SBAC assessment (grades 3 – 6) you may not be allowed to give students a premade note taking form or graphic organizer. Students may have to develop their own as they read. Student Directions: Your students have directions in their student assessment booklet. They are a shortened version of what the directions will actually look like on the SBAC assessment. Please remind them to read the directions. 1 Performance tasks (PT) measure complex assessment targets and demonstrate students' ability to think and reason. Performance tasks produce fully developed writing or speeches. PTs connect to real life applications (such as writing an essay or a speech or producing a specific product). http: //www. smarterbalanced. org/sample-items-and-performance-tasks/. Rev.

Teachers. . Note-Taking Feel free to use the note-taking forms if you wish or use what you’ve been using in your classrooms and have had success with. If you use the provided note-taking form, your students need to have had practice with the form before the assessment. Each student will need a note-taking form for each passage. The form is located in the teacher’s instructional section. All underlined words on the note-taking form are grade-level standard specific academic language. Important information about note-taking: During a Performance Task, students who take notes as they re-read a passage for specific details that promote research skills (main idea/topic, key details, conclusion) will later be able to find answers to questions more efficiently. Reading the questions first and then the looking in the text for the answer is a good practice, however not all answers to higher level or inferred questions have explicit answers within a text. 1. Read the text through to get the “gist” without the distraction of finding answers or note-taking. 2. Re-read the text. Take notes using a note-taking form. 3. Read answer the questions. Students may find some answers to highlight if they are not inferred or explicit although many research questions are of a higher level. Rev. Control: 02 -24 -14 HSD – OSP and © Susan Richmond

Planning to Write a Full Composition Informational Full-Composition Performance Task Prompt How do apples

Planning to Write a Full Composition Informational Full-Composition Performance Task Prompt How do apples make their way to your home? OPTIONAL! (By 4 th quarter students will be asked to write a full composition. For now, you can do a whole group guided practice, modeled demonstration or skip the experience all together) Teachers. . Your students are preparing to write a full composition. Part 1 of a performance task is part of that preparation (read paired passages, take notes and answer SR and CR questions). During Part 2 of a performance task students are allowed to look at their notes and SR and CR questions to gather information to plan a full informational writing piece using the performance task prompt (above). If you would like your students to have the experience of “planning” a full informational composition after completing Part 1 (this assessment) here a few ideas: 1. Find a graphic organizer you’ve used before to plan a writing piece. 2. Give explicit-direct instruction of the grade-level process allowing students to use their paired passages, notes and SR and CR responses. 3. Be sure students know the criteria before they begin (what you are expecting them to do). 4. Share exemplary models of completed graphic organizers. Review the criteria. Rev.

Research Note-Taking In the Classroom The note-taking forms are scaffolded in grades K – 6 following the recommended SBAC research targets and embedded standards. http: //www. smarterbalanced. org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/ELA-Literacy-Content-Specifications. pdf Research Informational Text Standards: (RI. 3: Standard 3 is included as resource in the development of research and writing as it supports connecting information between and within texts). RI. 9: Final Task Goal: Students are able to compare and contrast – find similarities and differences within or between texts for a specific purpose. The note-taking forms in this assessment support the above goal and the following assessed research targets: ü Research Target 2 Locate, Select, Interpret and Integrate Information ü Research Target 3 Gather/ Distinguish Relevance of Information ü Research Target 4 Cite evidence to support opinions or ideas Writing Aligned Research Standards: Writing Standard 7: Shows and builds knowledge about a topic Writing Standard 8: Analyzes information for a purpose Writing Standard 9: Supporting with evidence and reason Rev.

This is a key idea about the main topic Explain more key details about the new key idea you learned. You can use words and pictures to tell about it. Ask students to look for key details that explain more about the “something new. ” Remember students will need to have a notetaking form for each passage. Differentiation: 2 key details give evidence to support a key idea (or idea). Example if the main topic is about dogs and. . . 3 “The dog likes to play, ” (is the key Idea), Idea Then some key details might be: • the dog likes to play fetch. • the dog likes to play with the ball. In grade one you can scaffold students by starting with writing just a key idea and move toward writing key details. Students who would benefit from enrichment can continue on with more sections or paragraphs. Students who need more direct instruction – teach part in a mini lesson. These concepts can be taught separately: • Main topic • Key Ideas • Key Details ELL Students may need each part taught using language (sentence) frames emphasizing transitional Rev.

Teacher /Rubric “Language Response” The response: gives sufficient evidence of the ability to locate and select information about the prompt. Sufficient evidence that students can find and select information about the prompt would include facts/details about the purpose of a warehouse, showing an understanding of the definition of warehouse. The response: gives sufficient evidence of the ability to interpret and integrate information about the prompt. Students interpret when they select facts as relevant evidence to support the prompt and integrate when they write about their evidence. Relevant evidence should include facts about the purpose of a warehouse from both texts. The facts should include (1) trucks take bins of apples to a warehouse, (2) the apples are stored in the warehouse and (3) the apples are kept cold to stay “crunchy. ” Student “Language” Response Example Student gives 2 -3 facts explaining the purpose of a warehouse. 2 1 0 Apples are taken from the orchard to a warehouse in trucks. The warehouse keeps the apples cold. When apples are kept cold they stay crunchy. Student gives 1 fact explaining the purpose of a warehouse. Apples are put in warehouses.

Teacher /Rubric “Language Response” The response gives sufficient evidence of the ability to distinguish relevant from irrelevant information in order to answer the prompt. Students should cite evidence about how apples get from trees to home. Evidence from both texts should include (1) apples grow in orchards, (2) workers or machines pick apples, (3) apples are put in a warehouse, (4) apples are sorted (one text says rotten apples are thrown away), (5) one text says clean apples are packed into boxes, (5) apples are delivered to the store (one text says the apples are put on shelves) and (6) people go to the store and buy the apples. Students may use information to add to meaning but only information specific to the prompt is given credit for. The response should have some type of sequential order (enough to make sense of the process). Student “Language” Response Example Student presents 4 -5 relevant and sufficient details in sequential order from both texts. 2 1 0 Apples grow on trees. When its time people or machines pick the apples and put them in bins. The bins go to a warehouse to keep apples cold and crunchy. Then the apples are sorted. Rotten apples are thrown away and clean apples are packed into boxes. Trucks take the clean apples to the grocery stores. People put the apples on shelves. We go to the store and buy apples. Then we take them home and eat them! Student presents 2 -3 (limited) relevant details in sequential order, but isn’t apparent if from both texts. Apples are good to eat at home. After the apples are picked they are taken to the store. We buy the apples and eat them. Student presents no evidence to distinguish relevant from irrelevant information about the prompt.
