10 ELA Text-Based Writing Component The FSA ELA assessment has a Text-Based Writing Component that is administered separately from the rest of the FSA ELA assessment, but it is reported as part of the ELA score (It is administered earlier to allow time for handscoring). Grade minutes 2 to 4 different texts on the same topic and the student will create a response based on what is asked of the student. Students will be presented with either a one part or a two part prompt. For the Informative writing prompts, students will be required to synthesize and analyze ideas from the stimuli to develop and support a controlling idea. For the Opinion writing prompts, students will be required to synthesize and analyze ideas and evidence from stimuli. They will use these ideas to present and support an opinion.

11 Examples of an Informative Prompt One Part Prompt: The passages were about exploring the oceans through technology. Write an informative essay in which you explain how technology has helped explorers overcome challenges related to deep-sea exploration. Use evidence from the passages in your essay. Two Part Prompt: The sources that you read were about different materials. Write an informative essay in which you contrast two interesting materials that you read about and how the materials are used. Use information from the sources in your essay.

12 Examples of an Opinion Prompt One Part Prompt: The passages you read were about bike sharing. Write an essay in which you give your opinion about whether or not a bike sharing program would work in your community. Use information from the passages in your essay. Two Part Prompt: The passages are about bottled water. Write an essay in which you give your opinion about which system would be better for your school: selling bottled water or buying a water purification system and why the other idea would no be a good choice for your school. Support your opinion with evidence from the sources.

26 5 th Grade: Statewide Science Assessment (SSA) May 1-2, 2018

27 NGSSS SCIENCE STANDARDS Currently we continue to use the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) for Science. During teaching and learning, connections to Florida Standards for Mathematics and English Language Arts Literacy for History, Science and Technical Subjects are established, as they are essential for understanding the Nature of Science.

28 How do the Language Arts Florida Standards (LAFS) Support Science? By building scientific knowledge through content-rich nonfiction and informational texts By engaging in scientific research, reading, and writing that is grounded in evidence from text Through regular practice with complex text and its academic vocabulary With scientific conclusion writing, which requires students to support their own written claims with appropriate justification to include evidence and scientific reasoning

29 TEST ADMINISTRATION INFORMATION About SSA Grade 5 SSA will be administered in two 80-minute sessions with a break in the middle of each session. Grade 5 sessions are administered over two days. Paper-based Test! All multiple choice/no short-answer responses

30 SSA CONTENT REPORTING CATEGORIES Students will be tested on the following science categories: Nature of Science Earth and Space Science Physical Science Life Science

31 Sample Test Questions Nature of Science

32 Earth/Space Science

34 Life Science

35 TIPS FOR TAKING THE SSA and Florida Standards Assessment Some hints to help you do your best when taking the SSA and Florida Standards Assessment: Sleep well the night before and eat a balanced and nutritious breakfast. Read each question carefully and think about ways to answer or solve the problem before you try to answer the question. Use reading text marking strategies (underline, circle, margin notes, etc.) Answer the questions you are sure about first. If a question seems too difficult, skip it and go back to it later. Think positively. Some questions may seem hard to you, but you may be able to figure out what to do if you read each question carefully. When you have finished each question, re-read it to make sure your answer is reasonable. Relax. Some people get nervous about tests. It s natural. Just do your best!
