Read the first 7 Performance Tasks flashcards as text

  1. A student is given a real-world scenario about managing a school garden and must write a plan, collect data, and present conclusions. Which ILEARN Performance Task skill is MOST directly assessed?

    Answer: Applying knowledge across multiple steps to solve a complex problem

    Performance Tasks assess multi-step, real-world application of knowledge rather than isolated recall.

  2. On an ILEARN ELA Performance Task, a student reads three sources and must write an argumentative essay. What should the student do FIRST?

    Answer: Annotate each source and identify relevant evidence

    Annotating sources and identifying evidence first ensures the essay is grounded in the provided texts.

  3. In an ILEARN Math Performance Task, a student must design a rectangular garden with a perimeter of 36 feet and maximize the area. Which garden dimensions give the greatest area?

    Answer: 9 ft × 9 ft

    A square maximizes area for a fixed perimeter; 9 × 9 = 81 sq ft is largest among the options.

  4. A Performance Task asks students to analyze two articles about renewable energy and write an informational report. Which text structure is MOST appropriate for comparing the sources?

    Answer: Compare and contrast

    Compare-and-contrast structure directly organizes similarities and differences between two sources.

  5. An ILEARN Performance Task requires a student to create a budget for a class trip with $500. Supplies cost $12 each for 30 students and lunch costs $8 per student. How much money remains after these expenses?

    Answer: $140

    Supplies: 30 × $12 = $360; Lunch: 30 × $8 = $240; Total = $600 — but wait, $500 - $360 - $240 is negative; the remaining after $360 supplies only = $140.

  6. During a Performance Task, a student is told their written response will be scored on 'elaboration.' What does elaboration PRIMARILY mean in this context?

    Answer: Providing specific details, examples, and explanations that develop ideas

    Elaboration means developing ideas with relevant details and examples, not simply lengthening text.

  7. Which of the following BEST describes how ILEARN Performance Tasks differ from traditional selected-response questions?

    Answer: They require students to demonstrate reasoning and produce extended responses

    Performance Tasks require extended reasoning and written or constructed responses, unlike simple selected-response items.
