13. On Demand Reassurances The test, scoring anchors and scoring training materials are very true to the Standards.

20. CIITS A tool to help teachers match targets, standards and assessments. Meant to be a repository of nationally normed bank items and teacher created items. As with any tool, use your professional judgment when applying items to your classroom. More items being added this year, aligned to the new ELA and Math standards. Goal is to support teaching and learning by putting everything in one place -

21. Issues Report When you have questions or concerns- use this form to report issues. The only way the bank will be better is if we work to make it work for us in the classroom.

22. Teacher Created Materials – 19 page booklet When you are ready to contribute to the resource for other teachers, in other words, lead by example. Follow directions in the booklet to submit instructional materials.
