Grade 6 Assessment of Reading, Writing and Mathematics, Junior Division Student Booklet Mathematics Spring 2013 RELEASED ASSESSMENT QUESTIONS Record your answers on the Multiple-Choice Answer Sheet. Beginning in 2013, EQAO will make approximately half, rather than all, of its test items (questions) public after each assessment. This process allows EQAO to build up a bank of items that can be used in future years. The best practice for supporting students is to review their achievement of the knowledge or skills being assessed, rather than focus on the specific test items. To facilitate that process, items that are not being published have been described in this booklet, including a reference to the knowledge or skill they assessed. Test booklets and examples of student answers from the past five years also remain available at www.eqao.com.
