Tech in CC: 9 th 10 th Grade Cont d Math Standards of Mathematical Practice - 5. Use appropriate tools strategically. Mathematically proficient students consider the available tools when solving a mathematical problem. These tools might include pencil and paper, concrete models, a ruler, a protractor, a calculator, a spreadsheet, a computer algebra system, a statistical package, or dynamic geometry software. Proficient students are sufficiently familiar with tools appropriate for their grade or course to make sound decisions about when each of these tools might be helpful recognizing both the insight to be gained and their limitations. For example, mathematically proficient high school students analyze graphs of functions and solutions generated using a graphing calculator. They detect possible errors by strategically using estimation and other mathematical knowledge. When making mathematical models, they know that technology can enable them to visualize the results of varying assumptions, explore consequences, and compare predictions with data.

ELA 3 rd Grade Practice Test ELA 3 rd Grade First Reading Selection: Series of questions on it. If Part A is wrong, Part B is automatically wrong.
Students may need to drag and drop below the visible portion of the page.
Second Reading Selection: Another series of questions on it. Use of drop down menu choices
Some hyperlinked word definitions were not visible on the screen. Ctrl/+ to enlarge or Ctrl/- to reduce the screen size text may be necessary.
Students may have two scroll bars. One for the text selection above and one for the page if it is longer than what is visible. Radio buttons vs. check boxes
Essay on both readings -- Students need to be able to type a series of paragraphs for their essays. Being able to do so on paper does not necessarily translate to being able to do so on the computer. -- Cut, copy and paste only worked with keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl/x, c, v)
