Expanded Version of the Mathematics Grade- and Course-Level Expectations

Performance Level Descriptors (PLD)

Mathematics Item Specifications

One of the documents developed is the item specification document, which includes all Missouri grade level/course expectations arranged by domains/strands. It defines what could be measured on a variety of assessments. The document serves as the foundation of the assessment development process. Although teachers may use this document to provide clarity to the expectations, these specifications are intended for summative, benchmark, and large‐scale assessment purposes.
