Welcome to the 3rd Grade EOG Night!

Please sign in! Thank you.

Overview

• Reading EOG will be held on Thursday, May 26
• Math EOG will be held on Friday, May 27
• You will receive a letter with detailed scores after the EOG. Students

earn achievement levels on a scale of 1 - 5.

○ A new achievement level was adopted in March, 2014 indicating that all students that score a level 4 & 5 demonstrate college and career readiness. ○ A level 3 indicates that students are ready for the next grade, but do not meet the college and career readiness standard. This also enables a more accurate identification of students who need additional instruction & support.

Reading

• Reading and knowledge of vocabulary are assessed by having

students read selections and answer questions related to the selections.

• The Reading EOG consists of 52 items.
• Students read literary selections (i.e., fiction, nonfiction, and

poetry) and informational selections (i.e., content and consumer). The variety of selections allows for the assessment of reading for various purposes: to acquire literary experience, to gain information, and to perform a task.

Read to Achieve

• Students who scored an achievement level of a 3 or higher on the

BOG have met an exemption.

• Students who have passed all 12 standards (earning at least a 73%

across 3 passages) for the portfolio passages have met an exemption.

• Students that earn a level P or above for the EOY assessment (TRC)

have met an exemption.

Read to Achieve Continued...

If exemptions are NOT met by the end of third grade:

• Read to Achieve Test
• Summer Camp- opportunities to meet exemption
• Promoted to a transitional fourth grade class with 90-minutes of

intensive reading instruction on the third grade level, provided on a daily basis
