Item Formats
All items are aligned to the Illinois Reading Assessment Framework, which denes the elements of the Illinois Learning Standards that are suitable for state testing. Multiple-choice items require students to read and reect, and then to select the alternative that best expresses what they believe the answer to be. A carefully constructed multiple-choice item can assess any of the levels of complexity, from simple procedures to sophisticated concepts. Extended-response items require students to demonstrate an understanding of a passage by explaining key ideas using textual evidence and by using this information to draw conclusions or make connections to other situations. The extended-response items are scored with a holistic rubric and count as 10% of the scale score of the test.
Reading Sessions
All standard time administration test sessions are a minimum of 45 minutes in length. Any student who is still actively engaged in testing when the 45 minutes have elapsed will be allowed up to an additional 10 minutes to complete that test session. More details about how to administer this extra time will appear in the ISAT Test Administration Manual. This policy does not aect students who already receive extended time as determined by their IEP.

XEG212 Passage XEG212.AR1
A Candlelit Holiday
by Elaine Masters
On one full-moon night every fall, the rivers and lakes of Thailand are dotted with twinkling candles. The Thais are celebrating "Loi Krathong," or "Floating Leaf Cup Day." No one knows for sure how this lovely custom got started. Some say it was started 700 years ago by a wife of a king who wanted to surprise and please her husband. Others say it started even longer ago as a special religious ceremony. But however it began, it is delightful. Families always used to make their floats, or little boats, from banana leaves torn into strips and woven into the shape of a bowl. Then they beautifully decorated them with flowers. Now, while many families still make their own floats, others simply buy them. Modern floats may be made of banana leaves or plastic. All of them still hold a lighted candle, a flower, a stick or two of sweet-smelling incense, and a coin. On the holiday evening, families gather at parks near lakes, rivers, or
canals for outdoor dinners. Adults sit on mats and visit with their neighbors while children play tag or hide-and-seek. In some cities, blazing fireworks and dancers in shining silk costumes entertain the crowd. Many men and women sell things. People sell floats to those who have not made them at home. Other people sell balloons in various shapes and colors or clever toys made of bamboo. Food sellers offer noodle soup, dried fish, candy, little cakes, roasted chicken, and bamboo tubes filled with sticky rice cooked in coconut milk. They pour soft drinks into small plastic bags, whirl a rubber band around the top, and stick in a short straw. Then, when the full moon rises, families light the candles and set their little boats afloat. The waterway soon twinkles like a fairyland with candles bobbing in their floats and fireworks reflecting in the water.

This passage is about different ways animals communicate, from scratching to tapping to howling.
If youre sitting around a lonely campfire at night, the howl of a wolf can sound pretty scary. But the wolf isnt trying to scare anyone, its just letting other wolves know where it is. This helps members of its pack find it and tells other wolves to stay out of the packs territory. Animals use communication to tell others about their territory, find a mate, make friends, let others know how they feel, start and stop fights, and warn others of danger. Here are some of the more unusual ways that animals talk. SOUND Dogs bark, cats meow, birds chirp. Were pretty familiar with these forms of communication. But animals use sounds in other ways, too. To find a mate, the male ruffed grouse stands on a hollow log and beats his wings, making a drumming sound. The hollow log amplifies* the sound so that it can be heard for up to a quarter of a mile. Mole rats use a banging sound for the opposite reason. They like to live alone. So they warn other mole rats to stay out of their way by banging their heads on the top of their tunnels. Anyone who has used a dog whistle knows that dogs can hear sounds pitched so high that humans cant hear them. Elephants, on the other hand, can hear sounds too low for humans to detect. These low rumblings, or infrasounds, can be heard across long distances. They help elephants keep track of one another when theyre too far away to see or smell each other. TOUCH Animals use touch to communicate in many ways. Biting, kicking, and hitting

send obvious messages, but touch can also be used in friendly ways. Chimpanzees will touch hands to greet each other. Many primates groom each other as a way to show friendship, removing bits of dirt or insects from each others fur. Elephants may touch trunks in greeting. SIGHT Elephants also use their trunks for signals. A baby elephant will raise its trunk in the air when it wants attention from its mother. Body language is important to other creatures, too. When a gorilla is startled, it may stand still and shake its head back and forth. This means it does not intend to harm you. A chimpanzee will wear a special play face when it wants to let you know its friendly. Dancing is another way to talk. When a bee wants to tell other bees where to find a good stash of nectar, it performs a special dance, waggling its body and moving in ways that tell the other bees which direction to go and how far to fly. Some creatures even put their message in lights. Each type of firefly has its own flashing code. This helps males and females find mates of the same species. The lights not only tell what kind of firefly it is, they also guide the insects to each other. Color can also be important. The cuttlefish turns different colors to show how it feels. When its ready to fight, it turns a dark color. Its colors change quickly when it is agitated. Some animals have been taught to use human sign language to communicate with humans and even with each other. You may have heard of Koko, the gorilla who learned to form simple sentences with sign language. Other primates have also been taught to use such signals. And in another experiment in Thailand in 1994, elephants were taught to sign with their trunks and to use them to point to objects as they talked. Some bears and tigers leave visual signs. They put scratch marks on a tree as high up as they can. When another bear or tiger comes along, it may discover it cant make marks that high. That tells the visiting animal that the tiger or bear that made the marks is bigger and should be left alone.

SMELL Another way to communicate without actually being there is through smell. A gazelle has special scent glands near its eyes that it rubs on branches to mark its territory. When other gazelles pick up the smell, they realize that this territory has already been claimed. Many animals mark territory by smell, including domestic cats and their wild cousins. Queen ants can communicate with their workers by smell. The queen produces different chemicals, which rub off on her workers. As the ants rub antennas, the message travels to more ants, telling them what to do. The chemicals can tell the ants to march across the forest or to camp for the night. The ways animals communicate are as varied as the creatures and the messages they want to send. By observing carefully, we can learn more about what they mean. Try it with your own pets: Notice how many ways they tell you what they want and how they feel. They probably have you trained better than you realize.

People seem to love buildings that look like animals or picnic baskets or milk bottles. This passage is about buildings that look like other things, and one especially that looks like an elephant.
Buildings in Disguise
by Joan Marie Arbogast
1
Some buildings dont look like buildings. They look like oversize elephants, beagles, or ducks. These buildings are meant to grab your attention, and they usually do. Architects1 call these structures mimetic because they mimic other objects. As engineer and landdeveloper James V. Lafferty Jr. admired his very unusual building, he knew people would come to see it. But that was only part of his plan. The other was to convince people to purchase parcels of his land along the Atlantic coast. That was back in 1881 and his idea worked! His plan, after all, had been simple. Make it big. Make it fun. Make it in disguise. And thats exactly what he did. With the help of an architect and a crew of burly builders, Mr. Lafferty constructed a one-of-a-kind, sixty-five-foot-tall elephant-shaped building near the growing seaside resort of Atlantic City, New Jersey. People came from miles around to see his extraordinary building. Curious customers climbed the spiral staircases to the howdah, or canopied2 carrier, on the elephants back. There they viewed the lots for sale. Some eager land-buyers even sealed their deals inside the elephants belly. To prevent others from copying his idea, Mr. Lafferty applied for and received a patent on his building in 1882.

Two years later, Lafferty built Elephantine Colossus in Coney Island, New York the amusement park of its time. This spectacular building towered 122 feet, nearly twice the height of Lucy [the name given to the original elephant building]. Visitors paid to view its innards of seven floors and thirty-one rooms. But in 1896, a fire leveled the mammoth pachyderm.3 In 1887, Mr. Lafferty sold his original elephant to Anton Gertzen, whod helped construct the unusual building. The Gertzen family owned and operated the elephant as a tourist attraction for nearly eighty years. During the early 1900s, tourists paid ten cents to enter the awesome structure. People traveled the states and sailed the sea to examine this remarkable building. Though Lucy survived severe storms along the Atlantic coast for eighty years, the terrible storm of 1962 left her tattered and torn. Years of saltwater mists had already weakened her wooden bones. Years of sandy winds had worn her tin skin thin. No longer safe for curious tourists, Lucys doors were locked to the public. Afraid that their unusual landmark would be toppled to make room for condominiums, concerned citizens formed the Save Lucy Committee, which sprang into action in 1969. Even children pitched in to protect the aging elephant. The group raised enough money to move their beloved pachyderm to a safe spot in a city park farther from the waters edge. Though Lucy moved only two short blocks, it took nearly seven hours to inch her down the road. Once secured in her new location, lengthy repairs and restorations began. Then, in 1976, Lucy was honored as a National Historic Landmark. Today Lucy welcomes guests through her doors as she did when she was young. People still climb to the howdah on Lucys back, where they can view the seascape and the city of Margate, New Jersey, that Lucy helped to create. Lucy is our nations oldest functioning example of mimetic architecture. Shes also our oldest zoomorphic (animal-shaped) structure. Both are designed to grab your attention. And Lucy has for more than 120 years! The Future of Mimetic Architecture

Sweet Willy is one of the youngest buildings to enter the mimetic scene. His construction was completed in 2003. This thirty-foot beagle stands in Cottonwood, Idaho, among fields of canola and prairie wheat. Designed and built by husband and wife Dennis J. Sullivan and Frances Conklin, the beagle serves as a three-dimensional billboard for their chainsaw art studio.

The initial drawing for Sweet Willy was made on a napkin at a restaurant in 1998, when Dennis and I were brainstorming possible billboard designs, explained Conklin. One idea led to another, and before dinner was cold, we had decided to make this giant billboard not only wordless, but also large enough to be a lodging. Inside this pups belly is the main bedroom; a loft is tucked in his head. Wooden two-by-four studs form Willys skeleton. Wire mesh forms his hide. Stucco and shingles form his fur. Why would the artists choose a beagle for their billboard? Because they sculpt and paint their canine friends. One of their favorite subjects to carve is Seaman, the Newfoundland that accompanied explorers Lewis and Clark through this area years ago. But Sweet Willy wont be one of the youngest mimetic buildings for long. Somewhere, someone will construct another eye-catching, head-turning building to lure potential customers through its doors.

I think it would be bad for Sweet Willy to fall because thats one speacil buliding of the country gone). The response contains some gaps when attempting to use information from the text to make interpretations that are not correct (As the author says in the book it woudnt be good for Sweet Willy to fall down because its been loved for years) or interpretations that are thin (People should save buildings because people have alot of love for buildings . . . The author says buildings are good. I think buildings are loved because what they have done for our young contury). The response contains attempted connections that are not credited because they are not tied back to signicant concepts (My connection is my family dosent want a vase to break because it means alot to us. . . .

*The reader demonstrates an accurate understanding of important information in the text by focusing on the key ideas presented explicitly and implicitly. The response focuses on three reasons why people would want to save structures like Lucy and Sweet Willy: beauty, people care about historical landmarks, and the structures are used as a tourist attraction. The response also uses information from the text to make connections to other situations, as seen in these text to world connections (I once read an article where the citizens of Pisa stop the Leaning Tower of Pisa from falling and saved it. I can see how the people must have felt and worked to save Lucy. . . . This is just like the time I watched a National Geographic episode. In it a zoo in China was trying to capture a tiger and put it in a cage. They wanted to do this so they would have more people coming to see the animals in the zoo. All of these people wanted to have something beautiful to attract costumers). The response contains several very strong text references that are specic and fully supported, as seen by the following excerpt (The story says, Afraid that their unusual landmark would be toppled to make room for condominiums, concerned citizens formed the Save Lucy Committee, which sprang into action in 1969. Once secured in her new location, lenghtly repairs and restorations began. Then, in 1976, Lucy was honored as a National Historic Landmark). The response integrates interpretation of the text with text-based support, resulting in a balanced response.

The response uses information from the text to interpret signicant concepts through inference and evaluation (. . . they are very interesting building. . . . I think it is special that people raised enough money to save her. . . . People say that we should never destroy history. We should save structures like Sweet Willy because, as the author described, he is the future of mimetic Architecture. . . . there probably arent many buildings shaped like animals in the world). The response contains relevant and accurate references; most are specic and fully supported. These references are often embedded within statements containing interpretations to help respond to the prompt (People would want to save Lucy because she was the rst building to be shaped like an animal. She survived severe storms along the Atlantic coast for eighty years said the author. . . . That is part of why she is a historical landmark. . . . They have historical signicance). At rst glance, this response seems heavy on interpretation; however, with embedded text referencing, the response integrates interpretation of the text with text-based support, resulting in a balanced response.

All 75 items are aligned to the Illinois Mathematics Assessment Framework, which denes the elements of the Illinois Learning Standards that are suitable for state testing. Multiple-choice items require students to read, reect, or compute and then to select the alternative that best expresses what they believe the answer to be. This format is appropriate for quickly determining whether students have achieved certain knowledge and skills. Well-designed multiple-choice items can measure student knowledge and understanding, as well as students selection and application of problem-solving strategies. A carefully constructed multiple-choice item can assess any of the levels of mathematical complexity from simple procedures to sophisticated concepts. They can be designed to reach beyond the ability of students to plug-in alternatives or eliminate choices to determine a correct answer. Such items are limited in the extent to which they can provide evidence of the depth of students thinking. Short-response items pose similar questions as multiple-choice items and provide a reliable and valid basis for extrapolating about students approaches to problems. These items reduce the concern about guessing that accompanies multiple-choice items. The short-response items are scored with a rubric and count as 5% of the scale score of the test. Extended-response items require students to consider a situation that demands more than a numerical response. These items require students to model, as much as possible, real problem solving in a large-scale assessment context. When an extended-response item poses a problem to solve, the student must determine what is required to solve the problem, choose a plan, carry out the plan, and interpret the solution in terms of the original situation. Students are expected to clearly communicate their decision-making processes in the context of the task proposed by the item (e.g., through writing, pictures, diagrams, or well-ordered steps). The extended-response items are scored with a rubric and count as 10% of the scale score of the test. Scoring Extended- and Short-Response Items Extended- and short-response items are evaluated according to an established scoring scale, called a rubric, developed from a combination of expectations and a sample of actual student responses. Such rubrics must be particularized by expected work and further developed by examples of student work in developing a guide for scorers. Illinois educators play a substantial role in developing these guides used for the scoring of the short- and extended-response items. Committees of mathematics educators from throughout the state attend a validation meeting, during which they use the mathematics scoring rubrics to establish task-specic criteria that are used to score all short- and extended-response items consistently and systematically.

Mathematics Sessions
All standard time administration test sessions are a minimum of 45 minutes in length. Any student who is still actively engaged in testing when the 45 minutes have elapsed will be allowed up to an additional 10 minutes to complete that test session. More details about how to administer this extra time will appear in the ISAT Test Administration Manual. This policy does not aect students who already receive extended time as determined by their IEP.

The response shows complete understanding of the problems mathematical concepts and principles. The student correctly determines the number of pizza slices eaten by each friend and correctly determines the number of slices not eaten by the friends (I got six which meant of one pizza was not eaten by the five friends).
4
The response shows complete evidence of an appropriate strategy that correctly solves this problem. The student correctly changes each friends fractional amount of pizza into the number of slices eaten (Joe = = 6), adds the number of slices together, and subtracts the number of slices eaten from the total number of slices in both pizzas (24 - 18 = 6).
4
The response provides a complete written explanation of the solution process by clearly explaining what was done and why it was done (I took down the names of the five friends and what fraction they ate. Then I turned them into whole numbers, so it would be easier to add them instead of adding fractions).
4
The response shows complete understanding of the problems mathematical concepts and principles. The student draws two pizzas, correctly shades the number of pizza slices eaten by the friends, and determines the portion of pizza left uneaten (they didnt eat a pizza).
4
The response shows complete evidence of an appropriate strategy that correctly solves this problem. The student provides a diagram of each pizza to show the correct total number of slices present (2 pizzas each divided into 12 slices) and shades the correct number of slices that have been eaten by the friends. The student counted the unshaded pieces to determine the uneaten portion.
2
The response provides some written explanation of the solution process by explaining only what was done (I made 2 models of the pizzaI made all the fractions the friends ate into a common denominatorI then shaded the parts they have eatenI counted the parts they didnt eat).

2
The response shows some understanding of the problems mathematical concepts and principles by correctly modeling the fractional portion each friend ate.
2
The response identifies some of the problems important elements and shows some evidence of a strategy for solving the problem. However, the student subtracts the total number of friends (5) from the total number of slices in one pizza (12) to determine the number of slices left uneaten, which shows a limited understanding of the relationship among elements.
3
The response addresses what was done and begins to address why (I drawed a pictureI figured my answer by subtractingThe #12 came from the number of pizzas, the # 5 came from the pizzas that were eaten).
