A Look at the OAA • All OAA are based on the grade level standards. • The third grade OAA is based on what students should know by the end of third grade. • Standards help educators identify and measure what a student should be able and can do. • The OAA tells us how well your child is progressing towards what he/she is expected to know.

  5. Reading Assessment • There are 4 different types of selections • Questions include multiple choice (3 choices), short answer and extended response. • Each question is given a point value. • Types of stories USUALLY include fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and other. • Questions also include antonyms, synonyms, contractions, homophones, vocabulary, etc. • Students often will have to read charts/graphs and interpret them.
