Science Agli Error 11305

Everybody,

I am having a work day and one of my AATNs pointed out that Science AGLI
11305 has an and, and the task in the frameworks has an or. I am going
to caution my teachers to make sure they include all parts of the AGLI.

Hi Pam,
Thank you for your question regarding grade 4 science AGLI 11305
'recognize similarities and differences between objects'.
This AGLI contains an 'and' statement. But as you've indicated one of
the two sample assessment tasks on page 36, SAT11305A was written with
an 'or' instead of an 'and' statement. Please note this sample
assessment task as written will be acceptable at scoring if chosen by a
teacher. The second sample assessment task SAT11305B was written with
the appropriate 'and' statement and will remain as such.

Thank you,
Kelly
