The student could have set up a two-column table to find the total number of inches in 8 feet and then subtracted 2 inches to find the total number of inches in 7 feet 10 inches. 1 foot = 12 inches 8 feet = 96 inches 2 feet = 24 inches 96 inches 2 inches = 94 inches 3 feet = 36 inches 4 feet = 48 inches 5 feet = 60 inches 6 feet = 72 inches 7 feet = 84 inches 8 feet = 96 inches 162

Sample Response: 1 point Notes on Scoring This response earns full credit (1 point) because the student correctly identified the height in inches of Charles Austin s jump. The student may have found the correct answer by setting up a twocolumn table to convert 7 feet to inches and then added 10 inches to the total. 1.0 foot = 12.0 inches 7.0 feet + 10.0 inches = 84.0 inches + 10.0 inches 2.0 feet = 24.0 inches 84.0 inches + 10.0 inches = 94.0 inches 3.0 feet = 36.0 inches 4.0 feet = 48.0 inches 5.0 feet = 60.0 inches 6.0 feet = 72.0 inches 7.0 feet = 84.0 inches While decimals are introduced in the standards in grade 4, students are not expected to be able to perform calculations using the four operations until grade 5. A student can earn credit in grade 4 by identifying an equivalent value to a correct response. 163

Sample Response: 0 points Notes on Scoring This response earns no credit (0 points) because the student did not correctly identify the height in inches of Charles Austin s jump. The student may have used an incorrect unit conversion of 1 foot 10 inches when creating a two-column table. 1 foot 10 inches 2 feet 20 inches 3 feet 30 inches 4 feet 40 inches 5 feet 50 inches 6 feet 60 inches 7 feet 70 inches 7 feet 10 inches 70 inches + 10 inches 70 inches + 10 inches = 80 inches 164

Sample Response: 0 points Notes on Scoring This response earns no credit (0 points) because the student did not correctly identify the height in inches of Charles Austin s jump. The student may not have recognized that he/she needed to first convert the 7 feet into inches and then add the 10 inches to find how high, in inches, Charles Austin jumped. 165

Grade 4 Math Practice Test Question 18 Question and Scoring Guidelines 167

Question 18 16298 Points Possible: 1 Content Cluster: Draw and identify lines and angles, and classify shapes by properties of their lines and angles. Content Standard: Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles. (4.G.2) 168

Scoring Guidelines Rationale for First Option: This is incorrect. The student may have identified that a parallelogram can have right angles, but did not consider that not all parallelograms have right angles. Rationale for Second Option: This is incorrect. The student may have identified that a trapezoid can have a right angle, but did not consider that not all trapezoids have a right angle. Rationale for Third Option: Key The student correctly chose a rectangle, which always has 4 right angles. Rationale for Fourth Option: This is incorrect. The student may have identified the special case of the rhombus when it is a square. Rationale for Fifth Option: This is incorrect. The student may have identified that a right triangle always has a right angle, but did not consider that other types of triangles do not have right angles. Rationale for Sixth Option: Key The student correctly chose a square, which always has 4 right angles. Sample Response: 1 point 169

Grade 4 Math Practice Test Question 19 Question and Scoring Guidelines 171

Question 19 16292 20512 Points Possible: 1 Content Cluster: Understand decimal notation for fractions, and compare decimal fractions. Content Standard: Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model. (4.NF.7) 172

Scoring Guidelines Exemplar Response 2.1 Other Correct Responses Any value between 2.07 and 2.3, exclusive For this item, a full-credit response includes: A correct value (1 point). 173

Grade 4 Math Practice Test Question 19 Sample Responses 175

Sample Response: 1 point Notes on Scoring This response earns full credit (1 point) because the student correctly identified a number that is less than 2.3 and greater than 2.07. 176

Sample Response: 1 point Notes on Scoring This response earns full credit (1 point) because the student correctly identified a number that is less than 2.3 and greater than 2.07. While decimals beyond hundredths are not introduced in the standards until grade 5, a student can earn credit at grade 4 by identifying a decimal beyond hundredths that is equivalent to a correct response. 177

Sample Response: 0 points Notes on Scoring This response earns no credit (0 points) because the student did not identify a number that is less than 2.3 and 2.07. The student may have thought that 2.03 is greater than 2.07. 178

Sample Response: 0 points Notes on Scoring This response earns no credit (0 points) because the student did not identify a number that is greater than 2.3 and 2.07. The student may have thought that 2.92 is less than 2.3. 179

Grade 4 Math Practice Test Question 20 Question and Scoring Guidelines 181

Question 20 16293 20512 Points Possible: 1 Content Cluster: Geometric measurement: understand concepts of angle and measure angles. Content Standard: Measure angles in whole-number degrees using a protractor. Sketch angles of specified measure. (4.MD.6) 182

Scoring Guidelines Exemplar Response Other Correct Responses The correct angle does not need to be on the protractor in Part A For this item, a full-credit response includes: The correct angle (1 point). 183

Grade 4 Math Practice Test Question 20 Sample Responses 185

Sample Response: 1 point Notes on Scoring This response earns full credit (1 point) because the student correctly selected the letter that matches the angle label for the angle with a measure of 50 degrees. 186

Sample Response: 0 points Notes on Scoring This response earns no credit (0 points) because the student did not select the correct letter that matches the angle label to the angle with a measure of 50 degrees. 187
