Unlike other tests that change according to educational trends and legislative actions, CLT assessments are based on enduring concepts that stand the test of time and are accessible to students from a variety of educational backgrounds.  \nThe CLT Assessments for Grades 3-6  \nCLT’s newest goal is to create meaningful summative assessments that provide an opportunity for students in Grades 3-6 to think more deeply about great ideas inspired by literature, scholars, artists, scientists, and mathematicians by connecting test content directly to the classroom and encouraging curiosity about what is true, what is good, and what is beautiful. The assessments are available both on paper and online.  \nVerbal Reasoning  \nVerbal Reasoning for each grade level measures a student’s ability to comprehend and analyze texts sourced from classic children’s literature. The Verbal Reasoning portion of the test includes poetry, fairy tales, fables, and historical fiction, as well as from non-fiction sources representing history, civics, and the arts. The questions measure reading comprehension and analysis skills such as main idea, structure, themes and point of view, supporting arguments, finding details, and grade-appropriate vocabulary in context, as well as grammar skills in spelling, punctuation, capitalization, word morphology, parts of speech, and sentence structure.  \nQuantitative Reasoning  \nQuantitative Reasoning measures a student’s ability at each grade to perform arithmetic and mathematical computations and to reason geometrically and mathematically. This includes both mathematics content (achievement) skills in number sense, operations, measurement, and properties of shapes, as well as reasoning skills including logic, word problems, and mathematical and geometrical reasoning.  \nPurpose of Content Framework  \nThe purpose of this Content Framework Brief is to share the high-level test blueprint for each grade along with the list of skills that each assessment has been developed to measure. In developing this framework, our content experts reviewed various curricula as a starting point to form a basis for skill development across grades. Some of these curricula include:  \n● The Trivium: The Liberal Arts of Logic, Grammar, and Rhetoric by Sister Miriam Joseph, C.S.C, PhD  \n● Core Knowledge Curriculum Series by E.D. Hirsch  \n● Singapore Math curriculum  \n● Math in Focus curriculum  \n● The Spelling Workout (Modern Curriculum Press)  \n● Rod and Staff English curriculum  \n● Word Roots (Critical Thinking Co.)  \nOnce the initial set of skills were developed, we convened advisory committees of elementary educators","cbCaiu77MT24oZE3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiu77MT24oZE3","pdf",37232529,"English","# Our Mission\n## CLT Assessments for Grades 3-6\n## Purpose of Content Framework\n# CLT3 Test Design\n## CLT3 Skills\n# CLT4 Test Design\n## CLT4 Skills\n# CLT5 Test Design\n## CLT5 Skills\n# CLT6 Test Design\n## CLT6 Skills","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the CLT content framework brief?\",\"answer\":\"It shares a high-level test blueprint for each grade and the list of skills each assessment is designed to measure.\"},{\"question\":\"What does Verbal Reasoning for grades 3-6 evaluate?\",\"answer\":\"It measures students’ ability to comprehend and analyze texts from classic children’s literature, including reading comprehension, main idea, themes, point of view, supporting arguments, details, and grade-appropriate vocabulary in context, as well as grammar skills.\"},{\"question\":\"What skills are covered in Quantitative Reasoning?\",\"answer\":\"It measures arithmetic and mathematical computations and reasoning geometrically and mathematically, including number sense, operations, measurement, properties of shapes, plus logic-based reasoning and word problems.\"}]","Assessment Content Brief for CLT3-6 | PDF",101]
