[quote=Anonymous]I would question the test. Have you looked at the sample tests? [url]http://parcc.pearson.com/practice-tests/[/url] There are also questions from the actual tests and a sam[url]ple of responses with rubric which have been released. [/url]https://prc.parcconline.org/assessments/parcc-released-items?title=&field_subject_tid=&field_grade_level_unlimited_tid=11 Especially in the lower grades it doesn't seem age appropriate. The math tested isn't difficult or particularly engaging but the amount of writing required to receive full credit is cumbersome. Judge for yourself. But I wouldn't want to see MCPS spending more time prepping kids to answer these questions, especially not in the GT programs. [/quote]
