The new assessment will be criterion referenced as opposed to norm referenced. Thus, it will only assess Tennessee State Standards, which will provide teachers, leaders, parents, and community members information on how students are performing at the end of their second grade year on Tennessee specific standards. Because it assesses the full breadth of the standards, the data will be highly beneficial in determining how students are progressing toward mastering the standards.  \nThe English Language Arts (ELA) test is designed to assess the standards in an integrated manner. All items (except for fluency) are associated with passages (Reading passage sets, Listening passage sets) or short stimuli (Listening sentences) . All stimuli and passages are either literature or informational. Students’ foundational literacy skills are also assessed using words taken directly from the given passages. The integrated format will assess students based upon questions derived from both literature and informational texts in order to determine their mastery of the standards in the following areas:  \n• Reading Comprehension: Students’ comprehension is assessed based upon both literature passages and informational text.  \n• Foundational Literacy Skills: Students’ phonics and word recognition skills are assessed using words taken directly from the given passages.  \n• Language (Conventions/Grammar/Spelling): Students’ command of the conventions of standard English and vocabulary acquisition is assessed through words, phrases, and sentences found within or based on the given passages.  \n• Writing: Students are asked to write 3–4 sentences per prompt (aligned to standard W8) based upon information from the passage/text.  \n• Listening: Students are assessed on their listening comprehension skills through a series of sentences with picture-based questions and short passages with either picture-based or textbased items.  \n• Foundational Literacy Fluency: Students’ reading fluency and comprehension will be assessed through the use of yes or no responses to sentences that are read independently and contain second-grade vocabulary.  \nPurpose and Uses of the English Language Arts Item Sampler  \nThe English Language Arts Item Sampler contains the types of items that students will encounter on the new optional Grade 2 English Language Arts Assessment. All items in the sampler are aligned to Tennessee’s State English Language Arts Standards for Grade 2 and are representative of the formats used on the assessment. While the sampler is not intended to demonstrate the length of the actual test or to serve as a practice test, the items in the sampler may be used in a variety of ways to enhance instruction and assessment in the classroom.  \nTeachers can use the sampler to help students become familiar with the types of passages, items , and response formats that are on the assessment.
