1 Grade 8 Classroom Assessments Based on State Standards (CABS) A. Mathematical Processes and E. Statistics and Probability (From the WKCE-CRT Mathematics Assessment Framework, Beginning of Grade 10) A. Mathematical Processes Use reasoning and logic to: Perceive patterns, Identify relationships, formulate questions, pose problems, make conjectures, justify strategies and test reasonableness of results. Communicate mathematical ideas and reasoning using the vocabulary of mathematics in a variety of ways, e.g., using words, numbers, symbols, pictures, charts, tables, diagrams, graphs, and models. Connect mathematics to the real world as well as within mathematics. Create and use representations to organize, record and communicate mathematical ideas. E. Statistics and Probability E.a Subskill: Data Analysis and Statistics Organize, display, compare and interpret data in a variety of ways in mathematical and real-world contexts e.g., histograms, line graphs, stem-and-leaf plots, scatter plots, box-and whiskers, bar charts, Venn diagrams, tables, circle graphs. Interpret, analyze and make predictions from organized and displayed data e.g. mean, median, mode. and measures of variation such as range. * Analyze, evaluate and critique methods and conclusions of statistical experiments e.g., randomness, sampling, techniques, surveys. E.b Subskill: Probability Determine the likelihood of occurrence of simple and complex events e.g., experimental versus theoretical probability. * * Slightly modified to reflect Sharing the 10 th Grade Descriptors Note: While both Grade 8 learning targets for statistics and probability are given for each of the following CABS, it is the target in BOLD font which aligns with that particular CABS.

2 Examining the 10 th Gr. What s New for 8 th Graders? The 8 th Grade Classroom Assessments Based on State Standards were created to reflect the 10 th grade state descriptors and the MPS learning targets for 8 th grade. The 10 th grade state descriptors should be used by both 8 th and 9 th grade math teachers. See your MTL for the document, Sharing the 10 th Grade Descriptors, or visit the Portal (math page, inside the teacher community), for the delineated shared responsibilities. The 10 th grade state descriptors contain both previously introduced and new concepts. It is the intent of the 8 th - 9 th Grades Math Assessment Pilot, after considerable feedback from Kevin McLeod, UWM Mathematics Professor and Co-Investigator, MMP, to emphasize the new concepts. Alerting teachers to what is new for 8 th graders should have classroom implications. The 8 th grade math CABS are therefore split into two categories. First, a series of Power CABS which can be used to assess student understanding of concepts not found in earlier grade level state descriptors. Second, a series of CABS not denoted with Power which can be used to assess student understanding of concepts found in both earlier state descriptors and in the 10 th grade descriptors. The chart below identifies the descriptors that are new to 8 th grade as determined by the 8 th - 9 th Grades Math Assessment Pilot, E. Statistics and Probability Objective/Subskill 10 th Gr. Descriptor Piece that is New E.a Organize, display, compare and interpret data in a variety of ways in mathematical and real-world contexts e.g. histograms, scatterplots, and box and whiskers plot E.a Interpret, analyze, and make predictions from organized and displayed data e.g. mean, median, mode and measures of variation such as range E.a Analyze, evaluate, and critique methods and conclusions of statistical experiments, e.g. randomness, sampling techniques, surveys E. b Determine the likelihood of occurrence of complex events Notes While earlier grades are asked to organize, display and interpret data, it has not been with histograms, scatterplots, and box plots.
