assessment option that is part of the complete assessment program aligned with McGraw-Hill Reading Wonders and the Common Core State Standards(CCSS).Purpose of Selection TestsSelection Tests offers the opportunity to assess students on their knowledge of weekly selection and concept vocabulary and their comprehension of the reading selections found in the McGraw-Hill Reading Wonders Literature Anthology.Focus of Selection TestsSelection Tests focuses on two key CCSS areasReading and Language.The assessment items require students to provide the correct meanings of previously-taught vocabulary words;and to access meaning from previously-encountered text.Administering Selection TestsSelection Tests has been designed to supplement the student data you receive from Weekly Assessment.Since the assessments in Selection Tests do not have students encountering unknown words or applying knowledge of comprehension skills to“Cold Reads,”it should not be used as the sole tool for monitoring student progress through the curriculum.Each assessment should be administered once the instruction for the specific anthology selection is completed.Make copies of the assessment for the students in your class.After each student has a copy of the assessment,provide a version of the following directions:Say:Write your name and the date on the assessment pages.(When students are finished,continue with the directions.)Read each question carefully.Completely fill in the circle next to the correct answer.When you have completed the assessment,put your pencil down and turn the pages over.You may begin now.Answer procedural questions during the assessment,but do not provide any assistance on the items.After the class has completed the assessment,ask students to verify that their names and the date are written on the assessment pages.Teacher IntroductionProgram:Core ReadingVendor:AptaraComponent:ST_FMGrade:5PDF ProofSelection Tests Teacher Introduction

comprised of the following:8 multiple-choice items assessing the weekly selection vocabulary and concept vocabulary 5 multiple-choice items assessing the weekly selection from the McGraw-Hill Reading Wonders Literature Anthology VocabularyItems assess selection vocabulary and concept vocabulary.Items primarily ask students to provide the definition of the word;however,items featuring synonym/antonym identification,word categorizing,dictionary skills,and multiple-meanings are used as well when applicable.ComprehensionItems assess students understanding of the anthology selection using item types featured in the other assessment components.Answer KeysThe correct answer and CCSS alignment are provided for each item.Scoring Selection Tests and Evaluating ScoresEach item is worth one point.If you plan on students completing the entire test in one sitting,please tell them to disregard the STOP icon after vocabulary.You can decide to have students complete only a single section of the assessment or administer the assessment over two days.The STOP icon after both vocabulary and comprehension sections and the 18/15 numbering of items were included to assist in these administration methods.If students complete only the vocabulary section,a score of 6 or higher is expected.If students complete only the comprehension section,a score of 4 or higher is expected.If students complete the entire weekly test,a score of 10 or higher is expected.Students who score below these benchmarks may benefit from a review of the selection,its key vocabulary,and its associated comprehension skills.Teacher IntroductionProgram:Core ReadingVendor:AptaraComponent:ST_FMGrade:5PDF Proofvi Selection Tests Teacher Introduction00i_0vi_CR14_ST_5_FM_114242.indd Page vi 03/04/12 4:09
