Creating Benchmark Assessments

Decision Points:

 * What will be the common ‘Essential Outcomes’ for each grade level?
 * Which of the two benchmark assessment types will you use?
 * What targets will you assess?
 * What will you use as the “map” for your benchmark assessment?
 * What ‘scale’ will you use (50%? 80%?)
 * What will you use as the items for your benchmark assessment?
 * Which will you construct and which will you find?
 * How will you ‘guarantee’ that each is deeply aligned?
