IX. Mathematics, Grade 3 Grade 3 Mathematics Test The spring 2014 grade 3 Mathematics test was based on standards in the five domains for grade 3 in the Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics (March 2011). The grade 3 standards can be found on pages 38–42 in the Framework, and the five domains are listed below. ■ Operations and Algebraic Thinking ■ Number and Operations in Base Ten ■ Number and Operations—Fractions ■ Measurement and Data ■ Geometry The Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics is available on the Department website at /frameworks/current.html. Mathematics test results are reported under five MCAS reporting categories, which are identical to the five framework domains listed above. The tables at the conclusion of this chapter indicate each released and unreleased common item’s reporting category and the framework standard it assesses. The correct answers for released multiple- choice and short-answer questions are also displayed in the released item table. Test Sessions The grade 3 Mathematics test included two separate test sessions. Each session included multiple-choice, short-answer, and open-response questions. Approximately half of the common test items are shown on the following pages as they appeared in grade 3 test answer booklets. Reference Materials and Tools Each student taking the grade 3 Mathematics test was provided with a plastic ruler and a grade 3 Mathematics Tool Kit. A copy of the tool kit pieces used by students to answer question 18 immediately follows the last question in this chapter. An image of the ruler is not reproduced in this publication. The use of bilingual word-to-word dictionaries was allowed for current and former English language learner students only, during both Mathematics test sessions. No calculators, other reference tools, or materials were allowed. 13
