Sample Items for End-of-Course Exams: Algebra 1
The purpose of this document is to identify sample items and previously released items that
align to the 2008 Mathematics Standards assessed on the End-of-Course Exams.
The performance expectations (PEs) in this document are identical to those in the Washington
State Test and Item Specifications. Performance expectations that will be assessed at the state
level appear in bold text. The remaining performance expectations, which appear in italicized
text, should be taught and assessed at the classroom level.
The information in the columns to the right of each performance expectation shows alignment
of each PE to other courses and item development parameters:




Integrated sequence shows the alignment of this PE to other courses. PEs that are
common to Algebra 1/Integrated Math 1 or Geometry/Integrated Math 2 are
labeled in green; PEs that align to other courses are labeled in yellow.
Cognitive complexity (C.C.) as Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, or Level 4 as defined by
Norman Webb.
Format may be Multiple-Choice (MC), Completion (CP), Short-Answer (SA), or not
assessed at the state level (NA).
Contextual Situation (Ctxt) may be required (Y), item dependent (I), or not allowed
(N).
Restrictions to cognitive complexity, item format and context are necessary to construct a valid
and reliable on-demand assessment; these restrictions are not necessary in classroom based
assessments. For more information regarding test organization, the types of items on the
exams, and considerations and procedures involved in item development, please refer to the
Test and Item Specifications.

Other Resources on the Web:
Many teachers and districts in Washington State have created resources to help prepare their
students for EOC Exams and EOC Makeup Exams. Other states and agencies have also created
and released resources aligned to their own state standards for mathematics or to the Common
Core State Standards. The resources below have not been thoroughly reviewed by OSPI staff,
but instead are the responsibility of the reader to analyze resources and determine if they suit
the needs of their own students.
