Early Numeracy - Alexandria
STAR Early Literacy EnterpriseTM is the leading computer-based diagnostic assessment of early literacy skills developed for Pre-K?3 students. STAR Early Literacy Enterprise tracks development in three domains and ten sub-domains:
Word Facility and Skills ? Alphabetic Principle ? Concept of Word ? Visual Discrimination ? Phonemic Awareness ? Phonics ? Structural Analysis ? Vocabulary
Comprehension Strategies and Constructing Meaning
? Sentence-Level Comprehension
? Paragraph-Level Comprehension
Numbers and Operations ? Early Numeracy
STAR Reading EnterpriseTM is an assessment of reading comprehension and skills for independent readers through grade 12. STAR Reading Enterprise tracks development in five domains:
? Word Knowledge and Skills ? Comprehension Strategies and Constructing Meaning ? Analyzing Literary Text ? Understanding Author's Craft ? Analyzing Argument and Evaluating Text
STAR Math EnterpriseTM is an assessment of math achievement for students in grades 1?12. STAR Math Enterprise tracks development in four domains:
? Numbers and Operations
? Algebra
? Geometry and Measurement
? Data Analysis, Statistics, and Probability
What are computer-adaptive tests?
All STAR assessments are computer-adaptive tests (CATs). Computer-adaptive tests continually adjust the difficulty of each child's test by choosing each test question based on the child's previous response. If the child answers a question correctly, the difficulty level of the next item is increased. If the child misses a question, the difficulty level is decreased. CATs save testing time and spare your child the frustration of items that are too difficult and the boredom of items that are too easy.
What are STAR assessments used for?
The STAR assessments are often used to screen students for their reading and math achievement levels. STAR Reading and STAR MathTM assessments help determine reading and math achievement levels in order to place students into the Accelerated ReaderTM and Accelerated MathTM programs. STAR Early Literacy Enterprise assessments help educators monitor students' growing literacy skills and students' progress toward becoming independent readers. STAR Reading Spanish assessments help educators working in bilingual and dual-language programs to inform instruction, match students to books, and monitor Spanish reading growth. In English-only programs, educators can use STAR Reading Spanish to determine the Spanish reading level of incoming English language learner students to help inform instruction.
STAR EnterpriseTM assessments can also be used to monitor student growth throughout the year, to estimate students' understanding of state standards, and predict students' performance on the state test. In addition, STAR can help teachers determine appropriate instructional levels and skills that students are ready to learn.
What kind of score does my child get?
For every STAR assessment, your child receives a scaled score (SS), which is based on the difficulty of the questions and the number of correct answers. Scaled scores are useful for comparing your child's performance over time and across grades. STAR Reading and STAR Math scaled scores range from 0?1400. STAR Early Literacy Enterprise scaled scores range from 300?900. For STAR Reading Spanish, the Spanish scaled scores range from 0?780.
STAR offers educators a variety of scores and reports. Some STAR scores compare your child's performance to a specific criteria or to a standard (criterion-referenced scores). STAR Enterprise reports also include scores which compare your child's performance to other students who have taken the same test (norm-referenced scores). The criterion- and normreferenced scores are based on the scaled score
Benchmarks, Cut Scores, and Growth Rates
To interpret screening results, schools often use benchmarks and cut scores. These scores help educators identify which students require some form of intervention to accelerate growth and move toward proficiency, and which students are already high performing.
Please note: the table below includes benchmarks for a specific point in time. For the most precise benchmarks based on the exact day(s) your students were tested, rely on the STARTM reports.
Benchmarks are the minimum performance levels students are expected to reach by certain points of the year in order to meet end-of-year performance goals. The end-of-year benchmark typically represents the minimum level of performance required by state or local standards. Benchmarks are always grade specific, e.g., the 3rd grade benchmark.
A cut score is used to determine which students may need additional assistance to move toward the end-of-year benchmark.
Moderate growth rate is the amount a typical student is expected to grow per week. Based on national data, 50 percent of the students who started at this level were able to achieve this growth rate. Student Growth Percentile (SGP), now found on the Growth Report, can also help an educator determine if a student is growing adequately between screening windows.
