ObjectivesExplore the Test and Item Specs through the
lens of MSP itemsShare lessons learnedReview the Performance Level Descriptors
Test Development Guidelines Test & Item Specs Document p.3-7
Directions:p. 3-7 Read over general considerations. Pair up and share important information that
would be helpful to prepare students for the MSP
More Information on the guidelines
Items use language targeted to the previous grade level or lower readability, except for required mathematics terms listed in this document.
Directions with multiple requirements will be
organized with bullets.
Letters used as variables are always italicized.
The responses “All of the above” and “None of the above” will not be used.
Cognitive Complexity
ManipulativesReview the tools allowed and discuss the use
of manipulatives on the MSP with your neighbor

Phase 2Communicate, Develop Process, Resources for Transition &Implementation Phase 3
Transition to Common Core Standards
Phase 4Implementation 1. Spring 2014—pilot the assessment system 2. September 2014-June 2015—full implementation with state-wide assessment system.
Draft Implementation TimelineSummer 2010 to the 2014-2015 School Year
This is the time to consider and plan for transitioning, while continuing to implement our current standards.
It is not the time to stop strong, standards-based instruction…
