Each PT also has one full write in the writing purpose of Opinion/Argumentative or Informational/Expository that is scored across three traits: Organization/Purpose, Evidence/Elaboration, and Conventions. The short-text item and the full write are designed for hand-scoring.  \n7 For this table, Writing PTs are noted as three separate “items”; however, the Writing PT score is derived from a single student response scored on three distinct traits.  \n8 Total Items for Claim 2 includes 6 CAT items and 3 items from the PT as described in footnote 7.  \n\n| Computer Adaptive Test: Target Sampling ELA/Literacy Grades 3 – 8 and HS |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Component | Claim/Score Reporting Category | Content Category | Assessment Target 1 | DOK 2 , 3 | CAT Items | Total Items |\n| CAT | 1.

In grades 6-8, and HS, each student will receive one long literary passage set.  \n5 Each student will receive one long informational passage set and one short informational passage set.
