These items offer a shared reference point for understanding proficiency expectations, complementing the assessment's role in measuring learning. By analyzing items alongside performance data, educators can gain a deeper understanding of students' strengths and areas for growth. Students thrive in environments rich with diverse materials, challenges that vary in task type, and multiple avenues for demonstrating understanding. High-quality instruction, aligned with the learning goals, is the most effective way to support students' growth and prepare them for success.  \nENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS SAMPLE ITEMS  \nGRADE 6  \nTest questions can measure a single skill or a set of knowledge and skills. The ELA test differs from other subjects in that it has fewer items overall, but each item assesses multiple skills or knowledge by asking students to demonstrate skills through performance, such as writing a response to literary or informational texts. Therefore, what differentiates the levels of performance are the degree to and quality with which a student performs.  \n\n| \u003Cbr>Grade 6 – Claim 1: Reading Literary Text |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| 1st Text P. 5-6\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>2nd Text P. 10-11\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>| Multiple items on the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) are linked to a set of texts to read, often accompanied by images or multimedia.
