SPECIFICATIONS FOR NEW EOCS Look in your folder. If you are a department
chair for English, Math, or Science, you will see specifications for courses which have EOCs.
CLASSSCAPE Benchmarks have been created for each six weeks for English II, Algebra I, and Biology. You have a copy of the names of these benchmarks for teachers at your school so they will know what should be given each six-weeks.

New Item Types and ItemsConstructed-Response and Technology-Enhanced Items
• Mathematics: gridded response itemso Grades 5-8 and Math I (Algebra I/Integrated I)
• Calculator Inactive: Grades 3-8 and Math I (Algebra I/Integrated I)o One-third to one-half of grades 3-8o One-third of Math I (Algebra I/Integrated I)
• English II: short constructed response, technology-enhanced and multiple choice
Math I Constructed Response Item
Calculator: InactiveDOK: Skill/ConceptDomain: Interpreting FunctionsStandard: F.IF.4 For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity.
The daily profit, P, of a business that sells x units of a product each day is given by the function P = –2x2 + 200x + 3,000. The number of units sold on Tuesday was 10 less than the number needed for maximum possible profit. What is the difference between the actual profit on Tuesday and the maximum possible profit?

Measures of Student LearningMeasures of Student Learning
are being designed for non-tested subjects for district use to populate Standard 6 in the teacher evaluation instrument.
