PARCC Assessment: Common Core in Maryland
The 2014-15 school year was the first year that PARCC Assessments took the place of the Maryland Student Assessment (MSA). These tests introduced a change in teaching and test taking methods, including more detailed essay writing, more depth in understanding and explaining math problems, and the need for students to learn to type (the tests are taken online, not on paper).
Here are presentations from the ELA teachers from our school in January 2015, and a presentation from the Mathematics Department of PGCPS in November 2015.
