Selection Test & Weekly Assessments
Weekly Assessment
* As students complete each week of the reading program, they will be assessed on their understanding of key instructional content.
* Weekly Assessment focuses on two key areas of English Language Arts as identified by the Common Core State Standards---Reading and Language.
* Students will read two selections each week and respond to items focusing on Comprehension Skills and Vocabulary Strategies.
* The test consists of:
2 "COLD READ" Selections (Students read the test for first time.)
10 Multi-choice items assessing Comprehension Skills
10 Multi-choice items assessing Vocabulary Skills
1 Response item assessing comprehension
* Unfortunately we will be teaching the Unit for 5 days and often have to test on a Monday, but once again, the test is not over the stories read in class, but what is tested in the Comprehension Skills and Vocabulary Strategies taught.
Selection Test
Each assessment is comprised of the following:
8 multiple-choice items assessing the weekly selection vocabulary and concept vocabulary
5 multiple-choice assessing the weekly selection from the Anthology.
The selection or anthology we have read in class together and worked on the skills and strategies together. It is NOT a cold read and they can USE their book for support.
