Sample Questions

Question 1
A middle school teacher wants to assess an English learner's ability to apply scientific concepts in a real-world context, rather than just measuring their content knowledge through a multiple-choice test. Which of the following would be the MOST effective assessment strategy?
A summative, end-of-unit exam with simplified English.
A portfolio assessment where the student collects and reflects on their lab reports and projects over time.
A standardized achievement test to compare the student's performance to national norms.
A diagnostic pre-test administered at the beginning of the school year.
Question 2
According to California guidelines, what is the primary purpose of the Initial ELPAC (English Language Proficiency Assessments for California)?
To measure an English learner's annual progress in acquiring English.
To determine if a student is eligible for special education services.
To identify a student's initial English proficiency level upon entering a California school.
To provide a summative score for reclassification as Fluent English Proficient.
Question 3
A teacher is preparing a history test for a class that includes several English learners. To ensure the assessment is equitable and accurately measures content knowledge rather than language proficiency, which of the following is the BEST accommodation to provide?
Removing all images and graphics from the test.
Requiring all students to complete the test in the same amount of time.
Providing a bilingual, word-to-word dictionary and allowing extra time.
Increasing the number of complex, multi-clause sentences in the questions.
Question 4
Mr. Davila uses 'exit tickets' at the end of his science lessons. Students must answer one or two short questions about the day's topic. He reviews these responses to adjust the next day's lesson plan and identify students needing extra support. This assessment practice is an example of:
Summative assessment
Diagnostic assessment
Standardized assessment
Formative assessment
Question 5
When analyzing assessment data for English learners, it is most important for a teacher to:
Compare the ELs' scores directly to those of native English speakers without any other context.
Use a single test score to make high-stakes decisions about program placement.
Disaggregate the data to look for patterns in performance related to both language proficiency and content knowledge.
Assume that low scores are always due to a lack of content knowledge.
