MATH

The Grades 3–8 End-of-Grade (EOG) Mathematics Tests measure students’ proficiency on the NC Standard Course of Study (NCSCOS) for Mathematics

Items on the EOG assessments cover the full breadth and depth of grade-level cognitive expectation that can be assessed using the current test format.

The grade 5 mathematics tests will include both calculator inactive and calculator active sections. Both sections will consist of four-response-option multiple-choice items and technology-enhanced items. All items will be worth one point each.

The EOG Mathematics Tests must be administered during the last ten days of the instructional year (traditional yearlong schedule).

The EOG Mathematics Tests at grades 3–8 will be required to be administered in online administrations.

READING

The Grades 3–8 End-of-Grade (EOG) Reading Tests measure students’ reading proficiency on the North Carolina Standard Course of Study (NCSCOS) for English Language Arts

Items on the EOG assessments cover the full breadth and depth of grade-level cognitive expectation that can be assessed using the current test format.

To balance between complexity and the reading load for grade 3 students, each selection within the Grade 3 EOG Reading Test is divided into two separate parts. Items within each selection have also been divided and presented at the end of each subsequent part.

Based on analysis of item-completion timing data, the NCDPI estimates it will take 2 hours (120 minutes) for most students to complete the EOG Reading Tests. The NCDPI requires all students be allowed ample opportunity to complete the test. The maximum amount of time allowed is 3 hours (180 minutes) except for students with documented special needs requiring accommodations, such as Scheduled Extended Time.

The EOG Reading Tests must be administered during the last ten days of the instructional year (traditional yearlong schedule).

The EOG Reading Tests at grades 3–8 will be required to be administered in online administrations.

SCIENCE

The Grades 5 and 8 End-of-Grade (EOG) Science Tests measure students’ proficiency on the North Carolina Essential Standards for Science.

Items on the EOG assessments cover the full breadth and depth of grade-level cognitive expectation that can be assessed using the current test format. The EOG Science Tests will consist of four-response-option multiple-choice and technology-enhanced item types.
