The Practice Test gives students, parents and families, teachers, administrators, and others an opportunity to become familiar with the types of items on the CAA for ELA  . When students know what to expect on the test, they will be better prepared to demonstrate their proficiency in the alternate achievement standards, called Core Content Connectors, assessed at grade eight  . The practice test items are representative of the item types included in the CAA for ELA  .  \nThis scoring guide should be used alongside the online practice tests, which can be accessed at the Practice and Training Tests web page  .  \nThe following information is presented in a metadata table for each item on the Practice Test:  \nItem: This is the number that corresponds to the item as it appears in the Practice Test  . Key: This represents the correct answer(s) to the item and includes the score point value for the item and its parts  . Items are worth either one or two points  .  \nCategory: This references the broad content area that contains related targets and standards  .  \nConnector: This references the alternate achievement standard linked to a Common Core State Standard (CCSS)  .  \nTier: This references the level of cognitive complexity of an item  .
