Each spring, students in grades 4–10 are administered one text-based writing prompt for the FSA English Language Arts test. Students will respond to either an informative/explanatory prompt or to an opinion/argumentation prompt. An example of a text-based writing prompt for each grade is available for practice. To familiarize students with the response formats, teachers may encourage students to practice with each type of prompt within a grade band.  \nThe following FSA ELA Writing Practice Tests are available on the Florida Statewide Assessments Portal as shown below:  \nElementary Grade Band  \nGrade 4-Informative/Explanatory  \nGrade 5-Opinion  \nMiddle Grade Band  \nGrade 6-Informative/Explanatory Grade 7-Argumentation  \nGrade 8-Informative/Explanatory  \nHigh School Grade Band  \nGrade 9-Argumentation  \nGrade 10-Informative/Explanatory  \nThe practice test is not intended to guide classroom instruction.  \nTo offer students a variety of texts on the FSA ELA Writing tests, authentic and copyrighted stories, poems, and articles appear as they were originally published, as requested by the publisher and/or author. While these  \nreal-world examples do not always adhere to strict style conventions and/or grammar rules, inconsistencies among passages should not detract from students’ ability to understand and answer questions about the texts.  \nAll trademarks and trade names found in this publication are the property of their respective owners and are not associated with the publishers of this publication.  \nEvery effort has been made to trace the ownership of all copyrighted material and to secure the necessary permissions to reprint selections.  \nSome items are reproduced with permission from Cambium Assessment, Inc., as copyright holder or under license from third parties.  \nBLANK PAGE  \nPage 3  \nRead the “The Wild Among Us” passage set.  \nThe Wild Among Us  \nSource 1: The Howl Next Door  \nby Julie McPartland  \n1 Ahhh-eeee-oouu! Coyotes are famous for their howl. People often think of coyote howls as a sound far off in the wild mountains or open plains. They imagine sitting by a fire and listening to nighttime conversations between the wild canines in the distance. That highpitched cry is not always so far away, though. More and more, coyotes are found in or near cities.  \n2 In recent years, the animals have even moved into parks in New  \nYork City. No, coyotes are not swinging on swings and playing in sandboxes. Although coyotes live in the parks, most people will never see them up close. Coyotes, like many wild animals, are naturally cautious around humans. One urban park ranger says that she has only seen five coyotes face-to-face in thirteen years. However, using special cameras that watch the parks at night, people observe the coyotes playing and running. The coyotes do not know the cameras are there, so they act naturally. Park rangers, scientists, and others are learning about the behavior of the new residents.  \n3 Not everyone’s opinion is positive, though. Some people fear the idea of the coyotes in the parks. However, park rangers have no plans to remove the wild coyotes. Instead, the park officials are working on educating people. They say there is little reason to fear the animals as long as humans let them remain wild. People should remember not to feed the coyotes. If a coyote links humans with food, the animal may begin to lose its fear of humans and become a nuisance.  \n4 There are many New Yorkers, including urban park rangers, who are happy about the new coyotes in the neighborhood. If coyotes live there, it is because the parks have become cleaner and safer environments. Coyotes like the parks for the same reasons people do. One benefit of coyotes in cities is that they hunt and eat common pests like mice and rats.
