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.  \nThe items featured below are representative of those found on the ISA. The distinction between a student scoring proficient and above proficient on the ISA is primarily determined by the total points earned on all items, including those that require a brief written response. The ISA assesses content in clusters where a single stimulus or related stimuli are provided and then followed by a series of multiple-choice items and a single written response item. The samples below represent a single item taken from a larger cluster of items to illustrate the different types of stimuli with which students interact.  \nEarth and Space Science  \nBelow Proficient Approaching Proficient Proficient Above Proficient  \nA class was studying how temperature and elevation are related.  \nWhich area in the picture is the coldest?  \nA. Area 1  \nB. Area 2  \nC. Area 3  \nD. Area 4  \nStudents learn the use of fossil fuels has increased over time. Burning fossil fuels produces carbon dioxide. Table 1 shows the global surface temperatures from 1960 to 2020. The global surface temperature is measured in degrees Celsius (ºC) .  \nTable 1.

The temperature increased then decreased.  \nB. The temperature did not change.  \nC. The temperature decreased.  \nD. The temperature increased.  \nThe diagram shows how water is recycled in a lake ecosystem.  \nWhich stage is most directly caused by energy from the sun?  \nA. Condensation  \nB. Evaporation  \nC. Precipitation  \nD. Surface runoff  \nGreen City was comparing the average monthly precipitation from 2011 to 2015 and 2016 to 2020. The data are in  \nFigure 1.  \nFigure 1.

Table 1 shows when wolf pups learn the behaviors needed to survive.  \nTable 1. Wolf Pups Behaviors  \n\n| Age (weeks) | Learned Behaviors |\n| --- | --- |\n| 3 – 7 | -Playing with other pups\u003Cbr>-Wrestling with other pups |\n| 8 – 16 | -Eating prey from adults\u003Cbr>-Watching adults hunt |\n| 17 – 51 | -Traveling with adults\u003Cbr>-Hunting with adults |\n\nUsing the information, how do wolf pups benefit from living in a group?  \nA. They learn to play from adults.  \nB. They learn to hunt from adults.  \nC. They learn to eat from other pups.  \nD. They learn to travel from other pups.  \nStudents are studying the nests of two types of birds. They observed 10 nests of each bird. Table 1 shows the number of nests with surviving baby birds.  \nUsing the information, which bird’s population will increase faster and why?  \nA. Robin because each nest has three eggs  \nB. Robin because they have more nests with surviving baby birds  \nC. Cardinal because each nest has three eggs  \nD.
