The tests in this Show What You Know booklet are designed to measure your children’s mastery of the skills taught in each unit. The test questions use formats your children will encounter on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) in grade 3. The tests include questions that cover vocabulary strategies and reading comprehension.

How to Use the Tests

Give the Show What You Know tests at the end of each unit, after the fi fth week of instruction. Use the tests with the new fi ction and nonfi ction passages in the Student Edition’s Show What You Know pages. There is a 2-page test for each new fi ction passage, and a 2-page test for each new nonfi ction passage.

Providing children with new reads allows you to assess how well they have mastered the skills for the unit. When children apply what they have learned, you can evaluate the degree of mastery they have achieved.

Answers to the tests can be found on the Show What You Know pages of the Teacher’s Edition. Use the results as a tool to help monitor each child’s progress.

Administering the Tests

Each Show What You Know test consists of four multiple-choice questions and one constructed-response question. You may want to explain each section of the test to children the fi rst time you administer one.

For the multiple-choice questions, children should fi ll in the circle next to the best answer. Remind children to fi ll in the circle completely for each answer on the test.

For constructed-response questions, children should write their answers in the space provided on the page.

Before the test: Distribute test booklets or copies of the tests.

Directions: Say: Write your name at the top of the test page. When all children are ready, have them open their textbooks to the appropriate passage. Say: You will read a passage. Then carefully read the questions on the test page. For each multiple-choice question, read all of the answer choices. Then fi ll in the bubble for your answer. Fill in all answer bubbles completely. Do not mark outside the bubble.

For the constructed-response question, you will write your answer in the space provided on the test page. When you fi nish, put your pencil down.

You may begin now.

During the test: Monitor children’s test-taking behavior to make sure that each child is following the directions and writing responses in the correct places. Answer questions about procedures and materials, but do not help them answer the test questions.

After the test: Before collecting the papers, make sure that children have written their names at the tops of the pages.
