Assessment Test Proctor Instructions
GRADE LEVEL: The assessment tests are end-of-the-year cumulative tests. The student will
probably be taking assessment tests for the end of the grade level just completed.
ASSISTANCE: The assessment tests are intended to show the student’s current level of
attainment. Accordingly, it is important that the student receive no assistance with the test. Please
refrain from answering questions about the content of the tests until after the testing period.
ASSESSMENT SEGMENTS:
A. READING ASSESSMENT
1. Have the student read the "Student Passage" silently.
2. The student should then read the passage aloud while the person
administering the test makes notations on the "Teacher Passage" sheet. See
Appendix A for suggested notations to be made and the marks to use. Mark
comprehension questions "C" for correct and "X" for incorrect.
B. SPELLING ASSESSMENT
This segment requires the person administering the test to dictate the words, with
the student writing each one as it is dictated. While dictating, repeat each word
no more than twice.
C. ENGLISH GRAMMAR AND MATHEMATICS ASSESSMENTS
1. Both of these assessments are non-assisted segments, with the exception of
the Primer and End-of-First Grade Assessments, for which instructions are
presented orally. The student may take as much time as is necessary to
complete each segment.
2. Please do not have the student type the written essay. Handwriting is being
evaluated as well!
We recommend that the teacher give each portion (reading, spelling, grammar, and math) a
percentage score. If the percentage is 70% or higher, we recommend proceeding to the next grade
level. If the score is below 70%, a review of the completed grade's work is recommended or you
may decide that the student should return to the last level of mastery and proceed from there, even
if that means going back a grade level in that subject area. It is not necessary to assign a
percentage score for the writing section.
