THESTATEEDUCATION DEPARTMENT / THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATEOF NEW YORK/ ALBANY, NY 12234
In 2013, New York State began administering tests designed to assess student performance in accordance
with the instructional shifts and rigor demanded by the new New York State P-12 Learning Standards in
Mathematics. To help in this transition to new assessments, the New York State Education Department
(SED) has been releasing an increasing number of test questions from the tests that were administered to
students across the State in the spring. This year, SED is again releasing large portions of the 2017 NYS
Grades 3-8 Common Core English Language Arts and Mathematics test materials for review, discussion,
and use.
For 2017, included in these released materials are at least 75 percent of the test questions that appeared
on the 2017 tests (including all constructed-response questions) that counted toward students’ scores.
Additionally, SED is also providing a map that details what each released question measures and the
correct response to each question. These released materials will help students, families, educators, and
the public better understand the tests and the New York State Education Department’s expectations for
students.
Multiple-Choice Questions
Multiple-choice questions are designed to assess the New York State P-12 Learning Standards for
Mathematics. Mathematics multiple-choice questions will be used mainly to assess standard algorithms
and conceptual standards. Multiple-choice questions incorporate both the grade-level standards and the
“Standards for Mathematical Practices.” Many questions are framed within the context of real-world
applications or require students to complete multiple steps. Likewise, many of these questions are linked
to more than one standard, drawing on the simultaneous application of multiple skills and concepts.
Short-Response Questions
Short-response questions require students to complete tasks and show their work. Like multiple-choice
questions, short-response questions will often require multiple steps, the application of multiple
mathematics skills, and real-world applications. Many of the short-response questions will cover
conceptual and application of the standards.
Extended-Response Questions
Extended-response questions ask students to show their work in completing two or more tasks or a more
extensive problem. Extended-response questions allow students to show their understanding of
mathematical procedures, conceptual understanding, and application. Extended-response questions may
also assess student reasoning and the ability to critique the arguments of others.
The scoring rubric for short and extended constructed-response questions can be found in the grade-level
Educator Guides at https://www.engageny.org/resource/test-guides-english-language-arts-and-
mathematics.
The alignment(s) to the New York State P-12 Learning Standards for Mathematics is/are intended to
identify the primary analytic skills necessary to successfully answer each question. However, some
questions measure proficiencies described in multiple standards, including a balanced combination of
procedure and conceptual understanding. For example, two-point and three-point constructed-response
questions require students to show an understanding of mathematical procedures, concepts, and
applications.
To ensure future valid and reliable tests, some content must remain secure for possible use on future
exams. As such, this document is not intended to be representative of the entire test, to show how
operational tests look, or to provide information about how teachers should administer the test; rather,
its purpose is to provide an overview of how the test reflects the demands of the New York State P-12
Learning Standards.
The released questions do not represent the full spectrum of the standards assessed on the State tests,
nor do they represent the full spectrum of how the standards should be taught and assessed in the
classroom. It should not be assumed that a particular standard will be measured by an identical question
in future assessments. Specific criteria for writing test questions, as well as additional assessment
information, are available at http://www.engageny.org/common-core-assessments.

student, and the transportation and meals for everyone will cost $960.
To pay for the trip, the students design sweatshirts to sell for a profit of $19 per
sweatshirt. If each student sells the same number of sweatshirts, how many sweatshirts
must each student sell so that there will be enough money to pay for the entire cost of
the trip?
