What are the Florida Standards? The Florida Standards were adopted in 2014 in English/LanguageArts and Mathematics to help prepare Florida students for successin college, career, and in life by emphasizing analytical thinkingskills. The Florida Standards Assessments (FSA) provides a more authenticassessment of the Florida Standards because they include multiplechoice, create graphs, interact with test content, and write andrespond in different ways than required on traditional tests. Question types will assess students' higher-order thinking skills inkeeping with the higher expectations of the Florida Standards.

Benchmarks for Excellent StudentThinking (B.E.S.T) Standards Timeline for the implementation of the newB.E.S.T standards.

Who participates? Per Florida Statute 1008.22, all public school studentsare required to participate in the statewide assessmentprogram.– All English Language Learners (ELLs) must participate in FSAassessments (including ELA). This includes ELLs who havebeen enrolled in school in the U.S. for less than one year.– Accommodations may be provided to students with a currentIndividual Education Plan (IEP) or Section 504 Plan. Types of accommodations include:––––––Flexible PresentationFlexible RespondingFlexible SchedulingFlexible SettingAssistive Devices & ToolsLarge Print, One-Item-Per-Page, Braille

What subjects and grades are tested?All tests will be paper-based and MUST begiven at the school. Grades 3-5 FSA English Language Arts (ELA) Grades 4-5 FSA Writing– A student must take both the Writing and Reading teststo receive an FSA ELA score. Grades 3-5 FSA Mathematics Grade 5 Statewide Science

Writing Rubric and Sample

Writing Testing Tips1. Read the prompt and determine whether it is asking forinformation/explanation, or an opinion/argument2. Read the texts, looking for details to support information oropinion/argument3. Use the Planning Sheet to organize thoughts and details4. Write and edit response. Make sure it contains: Clearly stated and strongly maintained idea or argumentDetails from the passages to support idea or argumentVariety of sentence types and transitional strategiesClear and effective expression and logical progression of ideasStrong introduction and conclusionCorrect spelling and punctuation

Test Item Types - ELA ELA Item Types– Multiple Choice Students select one correct answer from four answer choices.– Editing Task The student reads a short passage with underlined words or phrases. The student selects the correct wordor phrase that should replace the underlined word or phrase from a set of options. One option will alwaysbe “correct as is”.– Selectable Text Excerpted sentences from the text are presented in this item type. These items may have one or two parts.In a two-part selectable text item, Part A might ask the student to make an analysis or an inference, and PartB might require the student to select the text to support the answer in Part A.– Multiselect The student is directed to select a specific number of correct answers from amount the options provided. In the two-part item, the student is directed to select the correct answers from Part A and Part B. TypicallyPart A is multiple choice, whereas Part B may be either multiple choice or multiselect. Part A often asks thestudent to make an analysis or an inference, and Part B requires the student to use the text to support theanswer in Part A– Evidence-Based Selected Response– Table Match This item type presents options in columns and rows. Options may be words, phrases, sentences,quotations, line/paragraph/passage numbers, or images.– Multimedia Enhanced content my include multimedia elements such as images, charts, graphics timelines, etc.

FSAAchievementLevels For all grade levels andsubjects, the minimumscale score inperformance level 3 isidentified as the passingscore. Earning passing scores onthe Grade 10 ELA andAlgebra 1 EOCassessments is requiredfor graduation with astandard high schooldiploma.

How are FSA Results Used? FSA results provide teachers and schools withadditional information about each student’sproficiencies. Results are used IN ADDITION TO teacherobservations and coursework throughout the year inmaking determinations of student strengths andareas of opportunity.

Florida’s Revised A Program The Florida Department of Education uses FSA and Science results toevaluate each public school and each school district. Schools are required to test 95% of eligible students in order to earna school grade. School grades are determined through performance on the FSAEnglish Language Arts (Reading and Writing combined), Mathematics,and State Science tests.– The school grade is based upon the percentage of total points earned.Each component is worth up to 100 percentage points.– This year, 2020-21, there will be a different calculation because of notesting in 2019-20 school year.
