7. PARCC The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) is a consortium of 23 states plus the U.S. Virgin Islands working together to develop a common set of K-12 assessments in English and Math anchored in what it takes to be ready for college and careers.

8. PARCC Items and Tasks Prototypes

9. Grade 3 Mathematics Summative Assessment

10. Task Types Type I: Tasks assessing concepts, skills and procedures. Tasks include a balance of conceptual understanding, fluency, and application. These tasks can involve any or all mathematical practice standards. Tasks will be machine scorable and will include innovative, computer-based formats.

11. Task Types (cont.) Type I: Tasks will appear on the End of Year and Performance Based Assessment components and generate evidence for measuring major, additional, and supporting content with connections to the mathematical practices as indicated in the PARCC Model Content Frameworks for Mathematics.*

12. SAMPLE ITEM Fractions on Number Line

13. SAMPLE ITEM Fluency

14. Task Types (cont.) Type II: Tasks assessing concepts, skills and procedures. Tasks call for written arguments/ justifications, critique of reasoning, or precision in mathematical statements (MP. 3, 6). These tasks can also involve other mathematical practice standards. Tasks may include a mix of innovative, machine scored and hand scored responses.

15. Task Types (cont.) Type II: Tasks will be included on the Performance Based Assessment component and generate evidence for measuring mathematical reasoning with connections to content.

16. SAMPLE ITEM The Field

17. Task Types (cont.) Type III: Tasks call for modeling/application in a real-world context or scenario (MP.4) and can also involve other mathematical practice standards. Tasks may include a mix of innovative, machine scored and hand scored responses.

18. Task Types (cont.) Type III: Tasks will be included on the Performance Based Assessment component and generate evidence for measuring mathematical modeling/application with connections to content. Currently there are no sample items available.
