Which EOGs Will My Child Take?
▪English Language Arts/Reading▪Mathematics: Calculator Inactive and Active
Shifting Students’ ThinkingCommon Core Standards
The Standards are rigorous and expect students to solve multi-step math problems and compare
multiple reading passages.
6 Shifts in ELA/Reading
*Read as much non-fiction as fiction*Learn about the world by reading*Read more challenging materials closely*Discuss reading using evidence*Increase academic vocabulary
6 Shifts in Mathematics
*Focus: learn more about fewer, key topics*Build skills within and across grades*Develop speed and accuracy*Really know it, Really do it!*Use it in the real world*Think fast AND solve problems
Mathematics EOG▪ 54 multiple-choice questions
▪ Paper and pencil format
▪ Aligned to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for mathematics.
▪ The mathematics test will consist of two parts: calculator inactive and calculator active.
▪ Students are allowed to use calculators during the calculator active part of the test only.
Weight DistributionDomain Percentage of Test
Operations & Algebraic Thinking (multi-step problems, problem solving, solving for the unknown)
30-35%
Numbers & Operations in Base Ten (place value, estimation, rounding)
5-10%Numbers & Operations in Fractions (compare/ordering, equivalents, number line, visual representations, word problems)
20-25%
Measurement & Data (picture graphs, line plots, bar graphs, measuring lengths and volume, elapsed time)
22-27%
Geometry (area, irregular shapes, perimeter, characteristics of 2D shapes)

ELA/Reading EOG▪ 52 multiple-choice questions
▪ Paper and pencil format
▪ Aligned to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for ELA/Reading
▪ Students read authentic selections and then answer questions related to the selections.
▪ The reading selections are comprised of literary and informational selections based on the Common Core.
▪ Knowledge of vocabulary is assessed indirectly through the application and understanding of terms within the context of the selections and questions.
Weight DistributionDomain Percentage of Test
Reading for Literature (poetry, realistic fiction, fables)
32-37%
Reading for Informational Text (non-fiction, expository text, articles, how to/directions)
41-45%
Language (imbedded within passages, grammar, context clues, prefixes/suffixes, vocabulary, multiple meaning of words)
20-24%

Read to Achieve The goal of the Read to Achieve program is to ensure that every student reads at grade level by the end of third grade.
Students will maintain a portfolio that includes Read to Achieve
reading passages. Students will take 3 passages per week. These passages will cover each of the 12 reading standards that will be used to assess students on the EOG. The Read to Achieve law gives the option of using a student portfolio to promote a child to 4th grade in the event that they do not passthe EOG reading assessment.
Students who do not pass the reading EOG, nor meet a good cause exemption will be invited to attend a free, district sponsored reading camp during summer break.
Good Cause Exemptions
Students need to meet at least one of the following good cause exemptions:
▪Limited English Proficient Students with less than two school years of instruction in ESL Program
▪Students with disabilities whose individualized education program indicates (i) the use of NCEXTEND 1 alternate assessment, (ii) at least a two school year delay in educational performance, or (iii) receipt of intensive reading interventions for at least two school years
▪Students who have (i) received reading intervention and (ii) previously been retained more than once in kindergarten, first, second or third grades.
Good Cause Exemptions
▪ Students who demonstrate reading proficiency appropriate for third grade students on approved alternative assessments (Discovery Benchmark/BOY EOG Reading Pretest)
▪ Students who demonstrate, through a student reading portfolio, reading proficiency appropriate for third grade students (Mastery of Read to Achieve Portfolio)
▪ Students who demonstrate proficiency on Read to Achieve Test (This is also offered at reading camp and again in early November of next year!)
Sample Test Items/Mock Test***The purpose of this activity is for you to see (first hand) the
types of questions and in-depth thinking that will be expected from your child on the EOG assessments. ***
Take a moment to read the sample reading passageyou received as you entered. Select the bestanswer for each question.
Then…
Select the best answer on each of the sample math items.
You will have 5 minutes to complete both! Timer
Mock Test AnswersReading1. B2. A3. D4. C 5. A6. A7. DMath1. C (12) Dividend always goes before divisor.2. B (42) Multiply, then add!3. C (R) Look at it another way! (equivalent)4. A (65) Add, then subtract! 5. D (125) Subtract –Look for key words (how many
more).
Questions require students to dig deeper, make
inferences, and apply knowledge and skills
learned in class!

Strategies to Help Your Child at Home
▪ Make sure that your child is reading nightly!
▪ Use question stems from the brochure to help guide your questioning.
▪ Have your child explain to you how they know an answer is correct. Encourage them to use evidence from the text as proof.
▪ Build vocabulary by encouraging your child to use context clues from the sentence.
▪ Encourage students to look for clues when they encounter unfamiliar words in text.
Strategies to Help Your Child at Home
▪ Work with your child to ensure that they are fluent in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
▪ Work with them on weak areas in mathematics.
▪ Encourage your child to ALWAYS show his/her work on math problems.
▪ Students should check for reasonableness and use inverse operations to check their answers.
▪ Have students think about what the problem is asking them to do. Have them verbalize this to you.
▪ Students should underline/circle key numbers and words in mathematical problems.
