6 Content and Rationale of the Skills Assessments Skills Assessments are designed to help classroom teachers and grade-level teams determine how effective their delivery of instruction is meeting expected student learning goals. They provide teachers with data related to the academic progress of the class. This information is then used to guide and plan instruction for the next theme.

7 Continued Subtests are based upon the content addressed in each theme/unit and California s English-Language Arts Content Standards. Skills Assessments are not to be used as an indicator of individual achievement. They are tools to help educators focus on the percentage of students meeting criteria for each subtest.
