04 Grades 7 8 FSA Mathematics Training Test Questions The purpose of these training test materials is to orient teachers and students to the types of questions on FSA tests. By using these materials, students will become familiar with the types of items and response formats they will see on the actual test. The training questions and answers are not intended to demonstrate the length of the actual test, nor should student responses be used as an indicator of student performance on the actual test. The training test is not intended to guide classroom instruction. Directions for Answering the Mathematics Training Test Questions If you don t know how to work a problem, ask your teacher to explain it to you. Your teacher has the answers to the training test questions. You may need formulas and conversions to help you solve some of the problems. You may refer to the Reference Sheet on page 3 or 4 as often as you like. Use the space in your Mathematics Training Test Questions booklet to do your work on the multiple-choice and short-answer questions.
