The 3rd Grade State Tests

The State Test for ELA or reading and writing starts on March 29th and ends on the 30th. It is two days long. The math part of the state test starts on the 26th of April and ends on the 27th. Both parts of the test are two days long. For ELA the first day questions are multiple choice this means that there is A B C or D and you have to pick the right answer, you have to think which one is the best answer. You’re going to have two sheets, one is the real packet and one is the bubble sheet. the bubble sheet is what the scorers scan through the machine to see what you got right and what you got wrong. The packet is supposed to help you if you have one answer in the packet and a different one on the bubble sheet.

For the second day of the state test, there are short responses where you have answer a question and then you have to use details from the text or paraphrase words from the test to prove your answer. There is also an extended response where you have to make an introduction with the title and the author’s name and you have to answer the bullets. The bullets are questions you answer and then give text evidence or paraphrase the text, the bullets are kind of like two short responses. At the end of your extended response, you have to make a conclusion where you answer the bullets in different words than your introduction, at the end of your conclusion you have to write the lesson learned once yo have done all of this, you are officially done with the state test for reading and writing.

This paragraph will talk about the State test for math.

The math State test starts on April, 26 and ends on the 27th. The first day is 25 multiple choice questions. Multiple choice questions are we have to choose A B C or D, we were persuaded to pick what felt best to us Some of them are questions that we haven’t studied in 3rd grade yet but we could figure them out because we learned a little bit of whatever the concept was, in the grades before. Personally, I thought that the first day was simple and there were no tricky questions. I had no difficulty on the first day. The words were not poorly chosen and I could understand every part of what they were saying.

For the second day of the state test for math, we had to do 6 short responses where you write the answer on three lines, we had to explain our thinking. there were also six multiple choice questions and you already know what they are. There is also a long response which is normally a two step math problem. I thought that the second day was harder than the first day because there was harder questions and more poorly worded ones. The questions were harder to understand and they were longer which made met tired. I had no trouble with the second day even after everything I just wrote. I will admit that the Math state test was easier than ELA State test. But I really liked both just the same.
