1. Math Milestones Information Constructed Response
Understanding Constructed Response Questions

2. Mathematics will require demonstration of conceptual understanding of concepts, procedural skills, fluency, problem solving, modeling, and mathematical reasoning.

6. How much time will students have to take the Math Milestones assessment?
The test will be given in two sections.
Section 1 is divided into two parts. Students will have up to 85 minutes per section to complete sections 1 and 2.
The total estimated testing time ranges from approximately 120 to 170 minutes.

8. Why do you think students do so poorly on constructed response questions?
Give time to discuss and share out
Say - Thinking about the example questions we looked at, are constructed response questions the only ones that ask students to reason/think?
Many of the multiple choice questions in Science, math, and social studies ask them to not only regurgitate memorized fact, but more emphasis is on applying knowledge and reasoning. Data analysis required in many areas.
