2017-2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Performance Task FSAA Overview

The Florida Assessment Program Florida Standards Assessment (FSA) FSAA ~25,000 students FSAA—Performance Task ~24,200 FSAA—Datafolio ~800 Provide an overview of the Florida Assessment program and the total number of students administered (Spring 2017)

FSAA Datafolio Performance Task The Florida Standards Alternate Assessment (FSAA-PT) will include two separate components for the 2017-18 school year. Students will participate in alternate assessment either through the FSAA-PT—Performance Task or through the FSAA-PT—Datafolio. Today’s training applies to the performance task.

2017-2018 FSAA-Performance Task Overview Administered to each student individually by the student’s teacher, a certified teacher, or other licensed professional who has worked extensively with the student and is trained in the assessment procedures Designed to show student mastery of Florida Standards Access Points and Next Generation Sunshine State Access Points Students typically select an answer to a question from three response options represented by pictures, text, numbers, and/or symbols Students use their primary mode of communication The FSAA-PT is administered to each student individually by the student’s teacher, a certified teacher, or other licensed professional who has worked extensively with the student and is trained in the assessment procedures. This assessment is designed to show student mastery of Florida Standards Access Points Students typically select an answer to a question from three response options represented by pictures, text, numbers, and/or symbols in a Response Booklet Students use their primary mode of communication to respond to questions We will be discussing the PT in detail today…..

2017-2018 FSAA-Datafolio Overview For students with the most significant cognitive disabilities who typically do not have a formal mode of communication and are working at pre-academic levels Designed to show student progress on a continuum of access toward academic content rather than mastery of academic content Before we move onto the PT…we want to provide a little information about the DF for those of you that may be less familiar 17-18 will be the second year of the assessment

2017-2018 FSAA-Datafolio Overview For students being assessed via Datafolio, teachers submit student work samples across three collection periods throughout the school year Samples are teacher-developed from typical classroom activities/tasks that are aligned to Access Point Standards Student evidence from all three collection periods is submitted by the teacher via an online system and independently scored to determine the student’s progress

2017-2018 FSAA-Datafolio Overview The goal is to move the student along the continuum of assistance toward independence by decreasing the LOA provided and increasing student accuracy within the context of content to show progress between collection periods

2017-2018 FSAA-Datafolio Overview FSAA-Datafolio Key Points Focus on access to (not mastery of) standards Focus on increased accuracy and independence Measures student growth over time Student compared only to self, not larger peer group Designed to reflect/incorporate classroom activities

Assessment Participation Checklist Who should be assessed with the FSAA? Individual IEP teams are responsible for determining whether students with disabilities will be assessed through administration of the general statewide standardize assessments or instructed in access points and assessed via the FSAA IEP teams will use the Assessment Participation Checklist to make this determination We will now discuss participation guidelines for the Florida Standards Alternate Assessment. Who should be assessed with the FSAA? A student's Individual Educational Plan team, is responsible for determining if a student will be instructed on AP and assessed with the Florida Standards Alternate Assessment. The IEP team should consider the student’s present level of educational performance. IEP teams should use the questions in the Assessment Participation Checklist to determine if the Florida Standards Alternate Assessment is appropriate for the student. The IEP team should also be knowledgeable of appropriate testing accommodations. Remember: parents must provide signed consent to have their student instructed in Access Points and assessed using the Florida Standards Alternate Assessment For questions on participation criteria, contact your district’s alternate assessment coordinator.

   Assessment Participation Checklist page5 The IEP team should use these 3 questions to determine if the Florida Standards Alternate Assessment is appropriate for the student. All 3 questions MUST be answered YES for the Florida Alternate Assessment to be an appropriate meaningful evaluation of the student.  

FSAA Assessment Planning Resource Guide In order to facilitate IEPs teams with this decision making process, the Assessment Planning Resource Guide has been developed. This resource is available on the FSAA Portal.

2017-2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Performance Task Design Overview

2018 Mode of Administration 2018 FSAA-PT will be administered in a paper-based format only Teacher will continue to record student responses in the Test Booklet and enter the responses online following administration

Assessment Design Fully aligned to Florida Access Courses page10 Assessment Design Fully aligned to Florida Access Courses All items sets are aligned to: Florida Standards Access Points and Essential Understandings Next Generation Sunshine State Standards Access Points The Florida Standards Alternate Assessment is fully aligned to Florida Access Courses. All FSAA items are aligned to the Florida Standards Access Points and Essential Understandings in ELA and Mathematics and to the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards Access Points for Science and SS.

Item Set Design The FSAA–Performance Task items are developed as sets that include three tasks written to a Florida Standards or NGSSS Access Point. Each item set is built with three levels of cognitive demand—with Task 1 representing the least complex task and Task 3 representing the most complex tasks. The FSAA–Performance Task test design provides tiered participation within the assessment for students working at various levels of complexity and provides students the opportunity to work to their potential for a greater range of access and challenge.

Design - NGSSS Science and Social Studies Participatory AP at Task 1 level Supported AP at Task 2 level Independent AP at Task 3 level Science and Social Studies Let’s now discuss how the NGSSS-AP are reflected in the task complexity of the FSAA item sets For Science and Social Studies, APs (Access Points) are already written to the 3 levels of complexity Participatory AP at T1 Supported AP at T2 Independent at T3

Design – FS-AP Mathematics and ELA Florida Standards Essential Understandings at Task 1 level Essential Understandings at Task 2 level FS-AP at Task 3 Level Mathematics and ELA The FS-AP for Math and ELA are reflected a little differently in the item sets The FS-AP is addressed at the T3 level and Essential Understandings are addressed at the T2 and T1 levels.

Design – Linking Sets Grade 4 FS-AP Grade 5 FS-AP Mathematics and ELA Linking Items will be on the 17-18 FSAA Written to a grade span (i.e., 4/5) and will be placed on more than one grade level test. For example, the same item set may be on a grade 4 test and a grade 5 test. Will be used to create linking of the content across the grades in ELA and math

5/2/2018 Design - UDL Elements of Universal Design are utilized during development to ensure equal access to items for all students Different formats/adjustments ensure access for all students: Tactile/braille materials One-sided booklets Object replacement UDL ensures all students the opportunity to demonstrate “what the know” without barriers of accessibility

Text-based Writing Prompt Design Writing prompts are designed to assess a students ability to compose a product in response to text All students in grades 4-10 are presented with: A selected response writing item set consisting of five questions (Writing Prompt 1) An open-response item (Writing Prompt 2) Note: will cover WP in detail later in the day!

2017-2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Performance Task Assessment Components

FSAA-PT Components Test Booklet Response Booklet Passage Booklet page13 FSAA-PT Components Test Booklet Response Booklet Passage Booklet Cards Packet and Strips Packet Next we will discuss the four components of the FSAA: the Test Booklet, the Response Booklet, the Passage Booklet, and the Cards Packet and Strips Packet

Test Booklet Content Standard Pages Item Tables First, let us look at the Test Booklet. Each grade level booklet will be color coded by grade The first page of each content area in the Test Booklet includes a list of the standards that are being assessed and a list of any teacher-supplied materials that will be needed for administration. The Test Booklet also includes the item set tables. The item set table provides the teacher with necessary instructions in order to administer each task. In addition, the test booklet includes sessions pages outline administration procedures within each content area. Content Standard Pages Item Tables Administration Instructions Color coded by Grade

Response Booklet Each content has own booklet Each content area has its own response booklet. The stimulus and response options will include a combination of pictures, words, numbers and symbols. Each content has own booklet Stimulus and response options will include a combination of pictures, words, numbers and symbols.

The response booklets are legal size paper with binding at the top. Some tasks require the student to respond to a stimulus picture and/or words. For these tasks, the stimulus will be placed on the top facing page and response options will be placed on the bottom facing page.

Passage Booklet Includes passages and passage graphics Some ELA tasks also require the student to respond to information presented in a passage and/or passage graphic. The passage Booklet includes all passages and passage graphics needed for ELA and Writing tasks. Includes passages and passage graphics Passages will be needed for selected item sets in ELA including Writing

Cutout Cards and Strips Some tasks will require the student to manipulate the response options by sorting, matching, or sequencing. For these tasks, the response options will be presented as cutout cards or strips. Passage art is also occasionally presented as a cutout when there is a “paired” passage presentation. For tasks, the materials will be indicated as a “Cutout” in the item set table. As a reminder, cutouts are pre-cut, but may need to be organized before administration. Indicated as “Cutout” in item table Although pre-cut, the materials may need some organization before administration

2017-2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Performance Task Item Set Design

page20 Each item set table contains three tasks: Task 1,Task 2, and Task 3. The tasks increase in complexity within each item set. As a reminder: all students enter at Task 1 which is the lowest level of complexity. Each table includes three columns:

Materials column

Teacher Script

Student response

page22 Materials Column All materials needed to administer an item will be located in the materials column First we will look at the Materials column. All materials needed to administer a task will be listed in the Materials column.

Materials Column All materials needed to administer an item will be located in the materials column Page of Response Booklet will be indicated The majority of response options will be found in the Response Booklet and will be indicated in the Materials column. The page number will be indicated in the Materials column.

Materials Column All materials needed to administer an item will be located in the materials column Page of Response Booklet will be indicated Cutout cards or strips will be indicated Some items require the student to manipulate the response options and are therefore in a cutout format. This will be indicated in the Materials column. Follow the directions for laying out cards and strips in the TAM. Present same order as they appear in the Materials column

Materials Column All materials needed to administer an item will be located in the materials column Page of Response Booklet will be indicated Cutout cards or strips will be indicated Teacher-gathered materials will be indicated Any teacher-gathered materials required for a task will be identified in the Materials column and on the Content Standards page.

Materials Column Alternative text intended to be read only to students with visual impairments will be enclosed in parentheses in the Materials column (see above example). Alternative text to describe pictures will be enclosed in parentheses Read aloud only to students with visual impairments

Materials Column Page in Passage Booklet and title of passage will be indicated The Materials column will indicate the title and the page number in the Passage Booklet. For paired passages, the passage graphics may be presented as large cutout cards. This will also be indicated in the Materials column.

page23 Teacher Script Column Teacher Script Column The teacher script column contains all instructions for the teacher on how to administer a task Contains instructions for the teacher on how to administer a task

Teacher Script Column All boldface italicized text is read aloud to the student. It is required that the teacher reads the boldface italicized text in the Teacher Script column VERBATIM. It is important that the teacher reads the directions (presented in boldfaced italics) in the Teacher Script column exactly as they are written. Contains instructions for the teacher on how to administer a task All boldface italicized text is spoken to the student and must be read verbatim

Teacher Script Column The teacher will be directed to read stimulus or response options Even if the student is an independent reader, you must read aloud the card/strip as indicated in the Teacher Script column, unless the directions indicate that the card/strip should not be read aloud Contains instructions for the teacher on how to administer a task All boldface italicized text is spoken to the student and must be read verbatim Teacher will be directed to read stimulus or response options

Teacher Script Column Here is a bar graph. It shows four games and the number of students who like each game. It is titled Favorite Type of Game. Five students like video games, three students like dice games, eight students like card games, and twelve students like board games. To facilitate the presentation of graphs, charts, and diagrams, scripts for reading graphic features have been embedded directly into the Teacher Script column. This descriptive text must be read aloud to all students. For example, the script for this graph reads as follows: Here is a bar graph. It shows four games and the number of students who like each game. It is titled Favorite Type of Game. Five students like video games, three students like dice games, eight students like card games, and twelve students like board games. Contains scripts for the teacher on how read tables, charts, graphs and diagrams to the student and must be read aloud to all students verbatim

Student Response Column page24 Student Response Column All response options listed in the Student Response column The last section of the Item Table is the Student Response Column. The Student Response Column lists all response options presented to the student.

Student Response Column All response options listed in the Student Response column Correct answer is boldfaced The correct answer is boldfaced and provided in the Student Response column; therefore, it is important for the Test Booklet to be positioned outside of the student’s direct line of sight.

Student Response Column All response options listed in the Student Response column Correct answer is boldfaced Teacher will fill in bubble to indicate student response The teacher should indicate the student response by filling in the bubble that corresponds with the student’s answer.

Student Response Column All response options listed in the Student Response column Correct answer is boldfaced Teacher will fill in bubble to indicate student response Important to record responses as each is administered It is important to record student responses as each task is administered.

Student Response Column All response options listed in the Student Response column Correct answer is boldfaced Teacher will fill in bubble to indicate student response Important to record responses as each is administered “No Response” option included All tasks will include a “No Response” option. Appropriate response time will be determined based upon a student’s typical response time during daily instruction. This will vary per student.

Student Response Column Task 1 only has scaffolding section Student responds incorrectly and teacher records in top section in the Student Response column Task 1 is only scaffolded if the student responds incorrectly. Use the top section in the Student Response column to record the student’s first attempt and use the Scaffolded Response section to record the student’s second attempt. If the student responds correctly on the first attempt of Task 1, leave this section blank.

Student Response Column Task 1 Example: student responds incorrectly and teacher records in top section in the Student Response column We will now walk through how to record a student’s response is recorded when Task 1 is scaffolded. In this example, the student responds incorrectly by selecting the answer “books”. The top section in the Student Response column is used to record the student’s initial response.

Student Response Column Task 1 Example: student responds incorrectly or provides no response: teacher records response in top section in the Student Response column Teacher presents item again with scaffolding and records the student’s second response in the bottom section of the Student Response column The teacher then presents the task again following scaffolding procedures, with only two responses. The student selects “quarters” as the answer. The teacher then records the student’s scaffolded response, “quarters” in the bottom section of the Student Response column. If scaffolding is not required, leave the scaffolded response section blank.

Student Response Column The two correct answers are boldfaced Some tasks may require the student to select two responses. In these instances both correct answers are boldfaced in the Student Response Column. Teachers should record both of the student’s responses. If the student only selects one answer, that answer should be recorded. As a reminder: teachers should cue students to complete the answer if more than one response is required. For example: “That’s one sentence. Now you need to give me one more.” Task with more than one correct answer

Student Response Column Description of the correct response Some tasks may require the student to sort, match, or sequence response options. In these instances, the correct response will be described in the Student Response column. The teacher will then record whether the student responded correctly, incorrectly, or provided no response.

2017-2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Performance Task Administration Procedures

2018 FSAA-PT Session Administration page28 2018 FSAA-PT Session Administration Session 1 Item sets 1-16 Adaptive: Each student is administered Task 1. Task 2 and Task 3 are administered only if the student continues to respond correctly without scaffolding. Session 2 Item sets 1-3 Non-adaptive: Each student is administered Task 1, Task 2, and Task 3 in each item set. Administration of each task is not dependent upon performance on the previous task. Session 3 Writing Prompts 1 and 2 Each student is administered all five questions and the open-response writing prompt. (Writing only) Each content area of the 2017 FSAA-PT will be separated into the following sessions based upon administration procedures: Session 1, Session 2, and Session 3 (for Writing only). Each session will require the teacher to follow different administration procedures. These procedures will be reviewed in detail on the following slides.

Session 2 Item sets 1-3 Non-adaptive: Each student is administered Task 1, Task 2, and Task 3 in each item set. Administration of each task is not dependent upon performance on the previous task. Session 3 Writing Prompts 1 and 2 Each student is administered all five questions and the open-response writing prompt. (Writing only) Session 3

Session 1 – Item sets 1-16 Adaptive Session 1 administration allows the student to move up through the item set as tasks increase in difficulty as long as he or she is able to respond accurately and independently. This administration procedure is consistent with prior administration of the Florida Alternate Assessment Each student starts at Task 1. A student who responds correctly moves on to Task 2. A student who responds incorrectly at Task 1 will be re-administered the task with scaffolding. After the item is re-administered with scaffolding, the student then moves on to the next item set. Each student who responds correctly at the Task 2 Level moves on to the Task 3 Level. A student who responds incorrectly, or provides no response at the Task 2 Level, will move on to the next item set. Following the administration of Task 3, regardless of whether the student responds correctly, incorrectly, or provides no response, he or she will move on to the next item set. Adaptive Continue to administer tasks in an item set only if the student responds correctly without scaffolding

Session 2 – Item sets 1-3 Non-adaptive Here is a diagram that shows the administration process for Session 2 items 1-3. Numbering will restart at the beginning of each session. All students start at Task 1. A student who responds correctly moves on to Task 2. A student who responds incorrectly at Task 1 will be re-administered the task with scaffolding. After the item is re-administered with scaffolding, the student then moves on to Task 2 and Task 3 regardless of whether he or she responded correctly or incorrectly or provided no response. Non-adaptive Administer all three tasks in an item set, regardless of whether the student answers each task correctly, incorrectly, or provides no response

Writing Prompt 2: Open-Response Session 3 – Writing Prompts 1 and 2 For Writing Prompt 1: each student will be read a passage followed by five selected-response questions. The student will respond to these questions by selecting from a field of options in the Response Booklet. For Writing Prompt 2: each student will be read a passage. The teacher will then administer the open-response writing prompt. The student will respond utilizing his or her primary mode of communication. Note: Scaffolding procedures do not apply to selected response writing questions in Session 3. Writing Prompt 1: Selected Response Writing Prompt 2: Open-Response Session 3 will include Writing content only Teachers will administer both writing prompts to all students Each prompt includes a separate passage

All sessions will be indicated in the Test Booklet: The test booklet will include a “session page” at the beginning of each session. The session page will indicate administration procedures. Be sure to review the procedures in the administration manual if you have any questions.

Additional instructions will be included at the top of all Session 2 item sets ADMINISTER ALL THREE TASKS IN THIS ITEM SET TO THE STUDENT Additional instructions will be included at the top of all Session 2 item sets

Sequence of Administration page34 Sequence of Administration Elementary , Middle School, and EOCs Teachers may use their discretion and administer content areas in the order that is best for the student For example, a teacher may choose to administer Science before ELA Teachers MUST administer all sessions within a content area in the same order they are presented in the Test Booklet For example, Session 1 must be completed before Session 2 and 3 Elementary , Middle School, and EOCs Teachers may use their discretion and administer content areas in the order that is best for the student For example, a teacher may choose to administer Science before ELA Teachers MUST administer all sessions within a content area in the same order they are presented in the Test Booklet For example, Session 1 must be completed before Session 2 and 3

page35 Scaffolding at Task 1 Task 1 is re-presented with only two response options Incorrect response is covered or removed (if no response cover the first incorrect option in the Materials column) Cover response option with paper or remove – do NOT cover with hand Only applied in Session 1 and 2 Scaffolding is the process of reducing the response options for a student who is unable to respond accurately at the Task 1 Level only. The complexity of the assessment task is reduced by covering or removing one of the response options. If a student is unable to complete the Task 1 question accurately, the task is re-presented with only two response options The student’s incorrect response is the option that is covered or removed, leaving two remaining options. If the student exhibits no response, then the first incorrect option listed in the Materials column will be removed. The task is presented to the student again with only two options. If scaffolding is necessary, make sure that the incorrect option is covered with a piece of paper or removed. Do not use your hand to cover the incorrect option or place marks on the incorrect option in the response booklet. Scaffolding is only administered in Session 1 and Session 2. It is not utilized in Session 3 (Writing).

Scaffolding at Task 1: Example A Teacher will present the task as indicated in the teacher script What is used to carry things? Example A – illustrates how to scaffold a task if a student exhibits an incorrect response Teacher will present the task as indicated in the teacher script Then read: What is used to carry things? Tissue, Flower, Basket

Scaffolding at Task 1: Example A Student selects “flower” which is the incorrect option Student selects “flower” which is the incorrect option. Teacher records in the Student response column.

Scaffolding at Task 1: Example A The teacher will cover or remove the incorrect option and re-present the teacher script with the two remaining options The teacher will cover or remove the incorrect option and re-present the teacher script with the two remaining options Then read: What is used to carry things? Tissue, Basket

Scaffolding at Task 1: Example A The student selects basket. Teacher then records in the scaffolded section of the Student response column.

Example A – Student Responds Incorrectly at Task 1 Scaffolding Video Click on the movie icon to view the video in “Slide Show” mode. Links to the videos are also included on the FSAA Portal Example A – Student Responds Incorrectly at Task 1

Scaffolding at Task 1: Example B Teacher will present the task as indicated in the teacher script What is used to carry things? Example B – illustrates how to scaffold when a student provides no response at Task 1 Teacher will present the task as indicated in the teacher script Then read: What is used to carry things? Tissue, Flower, Basket

Scaffolding at Task 1: Example B The student does not respond within the pre-determined interval (after the teacher repeats the script 2 times). The teacher records the response in the Student Response column. THE STUDENT DOES NOT RESPOND

Scaffolding at Task 1: Example B The teacher will cover or remove the first incorrect option in the Materials column and re-present the teacher script with the two remaining options The teacher will cover or remove the first incorrect option in the Materials column and re-present the teacher script with the two remaining options. Here the teacher covers Tissue.

Scaffolding at Task 1: Example B The student does not respond again within the pre-determined interval (after the teacher repeats the script 2 times). The teacher records the response in the Student Response column. THE STUDENT DOES NOT RESPOND

Example B – Student Does Not Respond at Task 1 Scaffolding Video Click on the movie icon to view the video in “Slide Show” mode. Links to the videos are also included on the FSAA Portal Example B – Student Does Not Respond at Task 1

Reading the Teacher Script page38 Reading the Teacher Script Next we will review the procedure for Reading the Teacher Script As a reminder: the teacher script contains instructions for the teacher on how to administer a task Contains instructions for the teacher on how to administer a task

Reading the Teacher Script Read the boldfaced italicized text verbatim to the student All directions to describe graphic features are embedded in the Teacher Script column Underlined text will specify test administration instructions: Accept any response mode the student uses to indicate a response It is imperative that the teacher read the boldfaced italicized text in the Teacher Script column verbatim. The teacher should read only the words in boldfaced italics to the student. Words that are not boldfaced italics are directions for the administrator(e.g., point to the . . ., place the cards . . .) and should not be read aloud to the student. All directions to describe graphic features, such as tables, charts, graphs, and diagrams are now embedded in the Teacher Script column Accept any response mode the student uses to indicate a response Accept any response mode the student utilizes to indicate a response. For example, if the student touches a card, then the touch should be considered the student’s response. When reading the task script, it is very important to pay close attention to underlined text in the Teacher Script column. Underlined text may give specific instructions for test administration especially when assessing fluency. Examples include: Do not read or sign the word cards to the student. Do not read or sign the sentence strips to the student.

Repeating the Teacher Script Allow wait time for the student to respond. Wait time may vary from student to student.

Redirection and Reinforcement page41 Redirection and Reinforcement Redirection strategies may be used if: consistent with the cues used during daily instruction for redirection and refocusing only; they should not cue the correct answer to the student Some items require the student to give more than one response “That’s one sentence. Now you need to give me one more.” Next we will discuss redirection and reinforcement procedures. Redirection strategies may be used if: They are consistent with the cues used during daily instruction and/or They are for redirection and refocusing only; they must not cue the correct answer to the student Examples of different forms of cues to help redirect or refocus a student: Repeat directions, rules, or task script when needed to help the student get back on track. Provide nonverbal refocusing to reengage the student with the task. Nonverbal cues may consist of, but are not limited to, lightly tapping on the work surface, pointing to assessment components, or attempting to establish eye contact. Provide minimal physical cuing such as lightly touching a student’s hand to refocus back to the task. Minimal physical cuing should not control the student’s movements. Some items require the student to give more than one response. The teacher may cue: “That’s one sentence. Now you need to give me one more.”

Redirection and Reinforcement Pointing May be used to direct student’s attention Should not indicate the correct answer Should point to each part of a table, chart, or graph as read aloud to student On some occasions, direction to “point to” is required and will be embedded in the teach script Teachers may use pointing to draw the student's attention to components of the assessment. Pointing should not indicate the correct answer. Teachers should point to parts of a chart, table, graph or diagram as they are read aloud to the student (i.e., teacher will point to the title of a graph as they read the title aloud to the student). It is up to the teacher’s discretion as to how much pointing or physical movement is required to direct the student’s attention to the areas or features that are being read.

Redirection and Reinforcement Pointing On some occasions the direction to "Point to ..." is specifically stated in the teacher will column. For example, when there is more than one stimulus graphic presented to the student, the teacher will be directed to point to specific graphics as the script is read.

Redirection and Reinforcement Reinforcement to encourage the student to keep working is allowed Should not cue whether the student’s response is correct or incorrect Should be consistent with methods used during daily instruction Reinforcement to encourage the student to keep working is allowed although it: Must not cue whether the student’s response is correct or incorrect Must be consistent with methods used during daily instruction Examples of verbal encouragement may include the following: o “I like the way you are working.” o “You are focusing so nicely.”

Teacher-gathered Materials page44 Teacher-gathered Materials Some items will require the teacher to provide objects to administer a task Indicated in the Materials column and on the Content standards page Place objects on the blank page in Response Booklet Response Booklet will note: Teachers will sometimes need to provide materials, such as rulers, calculators, or generic counters, in order for a student to answer a question. Any teacher-gathered materials required for a task will be listed below the heading “Teacher-gathered” in the Materials column of the Test Booklet, as well as on the first page of the content area. The objects may be placed on the blank page of the Response Booklet or on the work surface. It is most important that the objects are within the student’s view. If they need to be manipulated by the student, they must be within the student’s reach.

2017-2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Performance Task Text-Based Writing Assessment

2017-2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Performance Task Before, During, and After Administration

Test Security Security of all test materials must be maintained before, during, and after test administration Students are not permitted to handle secure material before or after administration A security number is used to account for each secure document Refer to the most recent 2017-2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Procedural Manual posted on the FSAA Portal Next we will discuss a few considerations on test security Security of all test materials must be maintained before, during, and after test administration. Although student specific test materials, i.e., test booklets are considered secure materials, teachers may have access to test components prior to testing in order to become familiar with and to organize the materials. However, these materials must be checked out and returned to the school’s security area each day. Test materials should never remain in classrooms or be taken out of the building overnight. See the 17-18 FSAA-PT Procedural Manual for more information on test security protocol.

Before Administration: Preparation Before Materials Arrive page65 Before Administration: Preparation Before Materials Arrive Read the 2017-2018 Test Administration Manual The following slides have helpful tips on what to do before, during and after administration. <Follow along with the teacher preparation checklist>

Before Administration: Preparation Before Materials Arrive Teacher considerations: How will he/she access the assessment tasks? What accommodations and support will be needed? Does he/she utilize assistive technology? How will I evaluate student engagement? What is an appropriate wait time for this student to respond? When and where does this student engage best? Before the assessment materials arrive in districts, teachers should also consider the following questions for each of their students: How will he or she access the assessment tasks? Teachers should review students’ IEP to determine how students will access and respond to the assessment tasks. What accommodations and support will be needed? Based on student’s daily instruction, determine the accommodations and supports that the student will need. Incorporate any additional individual accommodations for the student as outlined in the student’s IEP. Does he or she utilize assistive technology? If so, ensure that students have access to any assistive technology needed to access the materials and respond to the assessment items. How will I evaluate student engagement? Establish criteria, using best professional judgment, to determine when your student is engaged and not engaged. These decisions should be based on previous knowledge of their response mode and response times. What is an appropriate wait time for this student to respond? Determine an appropriate response wait time for each student being assessed. When and where does this student engage best? Schedule the assessment administration sessions for times and places that are optimal for your student’s effort and engagement.

Before Administration: Preparation of Assessment Materials Check to make sure all materials are present Test booklet (one for each student) Passage booklets, Response booklets and Cards and Strips Packets (each grade and content area) Check to ensure components are for the same form Read the Test Booklet Review set up procedures Highlight Teacher Scripts Organize cutouts Upon arrival of materials teachers should… Sign out the secure Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Test Booklet(s) from assessment coordinator. Check to ensure that all components are for the same form of the assessment. Ensure that there is one Test Booklet for each student. Sign out the Passage and Response Booklet(s) and Cards and/or Strips Packet(s) for each grade and content area being assessed. Some organization of cards and strips will be needed in preparation for the assessment administration. Read the Test Booklet to become familiar with the assessment tasks and format. Review setup procedures provided with each item of the assessment (refer to directions in the Teacher Script column). Teachers may choose to highlight the boldfaced italicized portion in the Teacher Script column that will be read aloud to the student. This will ensure that the setup directions to the teacher are not inadvertently read aloud to the student.

Before Administration: Preparation of Materials In January 2018, the List of Cards and/or Strips and Teacher- Gathered Materials Also in January 2018, the Object Exchange List with be available for students who benefit from the use of real objects Check to ensure that you have all the materials and resources you will need to administer the assessment. Some assessment materials are not included in the Response Booklets or Cards and/or Strips Packets and must be gathered by teachers prior to administering the assessment (see List of Cards and/or Strips and Teacher-Gathered Materials). Teachers should reference the List of Cards and Strips and Teacher-Gathered Materials resource after materials arrive. This list will indicate which items require cut out cards and strips and also identify objects that must be gathered by teachers prior to administering the assessment Object Exchange can be utilized for students who benefit from the use of real objects. The Object Exchange List identifies items and the allowable objects that can be substituted during administration. Object replacement is not required unless noted for students with visual impairments. This resource lists the item, the task, the objects as described in the Materials column, and the allowable replacement objects. All objects listed should be easily found in the classroom or school setting. It is not necessary to buy any materials.

During Administration page68 During Administration Accurate administration is important Account for necessary materials Record student responses directly into the Test Booklet Take notes in the Test Booklet to include in the online survey about the 2017-2018 FSAA-PT Security is paramount Accurate administration is very important. Teachers may want assistance in observing the student and organizing materials to aid in accurate administration. While Response Booklets are to be used for multiple administrations, each student should have their own Test Booklet. Teachers must record student responses in the Test Booklet while administering the assessment. An online survey will be available for the 2018 Florida Standards Alternate Assessment. Teachers will be able to provide feedback on specific items, so you may want to take notes in the Test Booklet. All assessment materials are secure and must be returned to the designated secure area or locked storage room between administrations.

During Administration: Take Breaks When? Signs of fatigue Lack of engagement At the end of an item set Teachers know their students best! The FSAA-PT is an untimed assessment, ample breaks are allowed. Talking Points to Emphasize: The FSAA-PT is an untimed assessment and students should be given ample breaks, as needed. Encourage teachers to watch their students for indications that a break may be needed. If the student shows signs of fatigue or does not appear engaged, stop the assessment and resume only when the student is ready. It is recommended that teachers complete an item set before taking a break, so that you are not breaking in the middle of a set.

After Administration: Student Response Entry page69 After Administration: Student Response Entry Teachers enter responses online when administration is complete Jane Smith Teacher recorded student responses in the Test Booklet as they administered and entered into the system when administration was complete.
