PARCC Summative Assessment with EBSR, TECR, and PCR Items 1

Grade 3 – EBSR, TECR, and PCR items that demonstrate the types of items PARCC will use to measure reading for information, reading vocabulary, written expression, and knowledge of language and conventions claims on a research simulation performance-based assessment task. Research simulation task question samples. Grade 4 – A sample of a complete literary analysis task. Grade 5 – Three sample items to indicate the types of items that will appear on an End of Year Assessment. Grade 6 – When combined with the early prototype items released previously, educators can view a complete narrative writing task. Summary of Items Released August

Evidence-Based Selected Response (EBSR)—Combines a traditional selected-response question with a second selected-response question that asks students to show evidence from the text that supports the answer they provided to the first question. Underscores the importance of Reading Anchor Standard 1 for implementation of the CCSS. Technology-Enhanced Constructed Response (TECR)—Uses technology to capture student comprehension of texts in authentic ways that have been difficult to score by machine for large scale assessments (e.g., drag and drop, cut and paste, shade text, move items to show relationships). Prose Constructed Responses (PCR)—Elicits evidence that students have understood a text or texts they have read and can communicate that understanding well both in terms of written expression and knowledge of language and conventions. There are three of these items of varying types on each annual performance-based assessment. Three Innovative Item Types That Showcase Students’ Command of Evidence with Complex Texts 3

Items demonstrate: – Sequences of questions that draw students into deeper encounters with texts (as in an excellent classroom), rather than sets of random questions of varying quality. – Opportunities for students to demonstrate what they know, rather than what they don’t know; items allow for partial credit – Purposeful options for student expression of divergent thinking – Use of technology to allow students to construct meaning for machine-scorable items Questions Worth Answering: 4

Students carefully consider two literary texts worthy of close study. They are asked to answer a few EBSR and TECR questions about each text to demonstrate their ability to do close analytic reading and to compare and synthesize ideas. Students write a literary analysis about the two texts. Understanding the Literary Analysis Task 5

Understanding the Literary Analysis Task EBSR QUESTION Grade 4 6 Part A Question: What is the meaning of the word avenge as it is used in the story? a. believe b. get even* c. make friends with d. scare Part B Question: Which detail from the story best supports the answer to Part A? a. "’In this forest, I am the chief of the animals!’" b. “’I don't believe you, little insect,’ snarled Cougar.” c. "’Ahrr! Ahrr!’" cried the cougar in pain, "’Get out of my ear!’"* d. "’Cricket, come out! Let me meet

EBSR QUESTION-Grade 4 Part A Question: How are the events in paragraphs 1 and 2 important to the theme of the story? a. They list the many lessons that Lynn taught her younger sister, Katie. b. They explain that Katie’s family had very high expectations of her when she was young. c. They show how strong the relationship is between Katie and Lynn.* d. They introduce the idea that Katie and Lynn want to learn more about the Japanese language. Part B Question: Which sentence from the story provides the best support for the answer in Part A? 7

4 TH -TECR QUESTION Question: Create a summary of the story using three of the sentences listed here. Drag the three sentences that describe key ideas from the story into the boxes titled “Summary.” The sentences should describe key ideas from the story in the order they happen. 1. Katie’s mother is disappointed that the girls use Japanese words incorrectly. 2. Katie remembers when a dog ran out of a corn field and attacked Lynn and her. 3. Katie keeps Lynn’s diary in a drawer beside her bed. 4. Katie and Lynn spend much of their time together as they grow up. 5. Lynn taught young Katie to say “kira-kira,” which was her first word. 6. Katie believes that Lynn saves her life, but Lynn believes Katie saved her. 7. Lynn explains that the sky is special like the ocean or people’s eyes. 8. Lynn sprayed the dog with water so it wouldn’t hurt its tongue on broken glass. 8

Students begin by reading an anchor text that introduces the topic. EBSR and TECR items ask students to gather key details about the passage to support their understanding. Students read one (Grade 3) or two additional sources (Grades 5 and 6) and answer a few questions about each text to learn more about the topic, so they are ready to write the final essay and to show their reading comprehension. Finally, students mirror the research process by synthesizing their understandings into a writing that uses textual evidence from the sources. Understanding the Research Simulation Task 9

Grade 3, Item #1—Part A The article includes these details about life: She wrote newspaper articles to tell others about what she saw in Alaska to inform those who had not been there. (paragraph 1) She wrote the first guidebook about Alaska. (paragraph 1) She was the first woman to work at the National Geographic Society, where she wrote many articles and books. (paragraph 11) What do these details help show about? a)They show that she shared the benefits of her experiences with others.* b)They show she had many important jobs during her lifetime, but becoming a photographer was one of her proudest moments. c)They show that her earlier travels were more exciting than the work she did later in her life. d)They show that she had a careful plan for everything she did in her life. 10

Grade 3, Item #1—Part B Ideas from paragraphs 1 and 11 were used to help you learn about her. Click on two other paragraphs that include additional support for the answer in Part A. There are more than two paragraphs that include additional support, but you need to only choose two. 11

Narrative Task (Grade 6): Jean Craighead George’s Excerpt from Julie of the Wolves Students read one or two brief texts and answer a few questions to help clarify their understanding of the text(s). Students then write either a narrative story or a narrative description (e.g., writing a historical account of important figures; detailing a scientific process; describing an account of events, scenes, or objects). Understanding the Narrative Writing Task 12

In the passage, the author developed a strong character named Miyax. Think about Miyax and the details the author used to create that character. The passage ends with Miyax waiting for the black wolf to look at her. Write an original story to continue where the passage ended. In your story, be sure to use what you have learned about the character Miyax as you tell what happens to her next. Grade 6 Prose Constructed-Response Item 13

Grade 6, Item #1—Part A Which statement best describes the central idea of the text? a)Miyax is far from home and in need of help. * b)Miyax misses her father and has forgotten the lessons he taught her. c)Miyax is cold and lacks appropriate clothing. d)Miyax is surrounded by a pack of unfriendly wolves. 14

Grade 6, Item # 1—Part B Which sentence best helps develop the central idea? a)“Miyax pushed back the hood of her sealskin parka and looked at the Arctic sun.” b)“Somewhere in this cosmos was Miyax; and the very life in her body, its spark and warmth, depended upon these wolves for survival.”* c)“The next night the wolf called him from far away and her father went to him and found a freshly killed caribou.” d)He had ignored her since she first came upon them, two sleeps ago.” 15

Part A What does the word “regal” mean as it is used in the passage? a.generous b.threatening c.kingly* d.uninterested Part B Which of the phrases from the passage best helps the reader understand the meaning of “regal?” a.“wagging their tails as they awoke” b.“the wolves, who were shy” c.“their sounds and movements expressed goodwill” d.“with his head high and his chest out”* Grade 6 Evidence-Based Selected- Response Item #1 16

A.reckless B.lively C.imaginative* D.observant* E.impatient F.confident Part B Find a sentence in the passage with details that support your response to Part A. Click on that sentence and drag and drop it into the box below. Part C Find a second sentence in the passage with details that support your response to Part A. Click on that sentence and drag and drop it into the box below. Grade 6 Technology-Enhanced Selected- Response Item 17

Grade 6, Item #5—Part B (Prototype revised to create sample item) Drag and drop two details from the passage that support your response to Part A into the box labeled “Supporting Details.” Supporting Details 18

Students will be given several passages to read closely. EBSR and TECR questions will be sequenced in a way that they will draw students into deeper encounters with the texts and will result in thorough comprehension of the concepts that can also provide models for the regular course of instruction. These tasks will draw on higher order skills such as critical reading and analysis, the comparison and synthesis of ideas within and across texts, and determining the meaning of words and phrases in context. Understanding the End-of-Year Assessment 19
