ELA Assessment Claims
Claim 1: Students can read closely and
analytically to comprehend a range of
increasingly complex literary and informational
text.
Claim 2: Students can produce effective and
well-grounded writing for a range of purposes
and audiences.
Claim 3: Students can employ effective speaking
and listening skills for a range of purposes and
audiences.
Claim 4: Students can engage in
research/inquiry to investigate topics, and to
analyze, integrate, and present information.
ELA Target 2 for Claim 1
Claim 1: Students can read closely and
analytically to comprehend a range of
increasingly complex literary and informational
text.
Target 2 for Claim 1 for Literary Text:
4TH GRADE: CENTRAL IDEAS: Identify or summarize
central ideas/ key events. (DOK 2).
8TH GRADE: CENTRAL IDEAS: Summarize central
ideas/key events using key details from the text (DOK
2)
11TH GRADE: CENTRAL IDEAS: Summarize central
ideas/key events using key relevant details (DOK 2)

We will use this sample item to identify
how an item is built and scored
Mathematics Assessment
Claims
Claim 1: Concepts and Procedures
Claim 2: Problem Solving
Claim 3: Communicating Reasoning
Claim 4: Modeling and Data Analysis
◦ Students can explain and apply mathematical concepts and interpret
and carry out mathematical procedures with precision and fluency
◦ Students can solve a range of complex well-posed problems in pure and
applied mathematics, making productive use of knowledge and problem
solving strategies
◦ Students can clearly and precisely construct viable arguments to
support their own reasoning and to critique the reasoning of others
◦ Students can analyze complex, real-world scenarios and can construct
and use mathematical models to interpret and solve problems
Claims explain how the students will be tested

All Standards are Critical
Major/Prioity work is to gain a strong foundation
◦ Conceptual understanding
Key concepts – teacher gives access to concepts from a
number of perspectives – so it is no longer a set of
mnemonics or discrete procedures
◦ High degree of procedural skills and fluency
Class and home time for students to practice core
functions – to later apply to complex
concepts/procedures
◦ Ability to apply math they know to solve problems
inside and outside the math classroom
Apply math outside of the context – use math to make
meaning
Take time to look over the Targets for Claim 1
Reminder: Targets are an integration of standards
Claims 2 & 4 Assessment Targets
Problem Solving
Modeling and Data Analysis
Claim 3 Assessment Targets
Communicating Reasoning
