FSA UPDATES
FSA Math Updates: Calculators
• Graphing calculators will not be used on FSA Math EOCs. (Algebra 1, Geometry, & Algebra 2)
• Scientific calculator will be used on all FSA math assessments grades 7 and up.
• Handheld scientific calculators may be provided to ALL students during the calculator-allowed session(s).
• FDOE will NOT provide a list of approved handheld calculators for FSA tests. They will provide a list of not-allowable functionalities for the scientific calculator.

FSA Mathematics Update
• The test platform has been modified so that a student can proceed to the next question without providing an answer to the current question.
FSA Mathematics Update
This screen will pop up when a student tries to proceed to the next question without providing an answer.

FSA Math Updates: Item Response
• Open Response (Natural Language Response) – Responses do not have to be grammatically correct including spelling. Student response should be clear and concise.
• Multi-Select Responses- Response will consist of 5 to 7 choices and student will choose 2 or more choices for the answer.
• All multi-select and drag and drop responses are worth 1 point. There is no partial credit.
FSA Math Updates: Item Types
• Multiple Choice• Multiple Selections• Equation Response• Grid with Action Buttons• Hot Text (Drag and Drop)• Open Response (Natural Language) • Matching• Table Response• Editing Task• Editing Task Choice
FSA Math UpdateEquation Items – Types of Responses
Equivalent fractions and decimals will be accepted except in items that are assessing a standard where a certain form is the expectation of the standard.
A zero in the ones place for answers that fall between -1 and 1 (excluding 0 itself) is not required.
FSA Math UpdateEquation Items – Types of Responses
Students can type in an answer using a mixed number or an improper fraction.
FSA Math UpdateTable Items – Types of Responses
Table items require the student to type numeric values into a given table. The student may complete the entire table or portions of the table depending on the question that is being asked.
Table Item Sample
The table below shows the profit that the car wash makes for various numbers of cars. Complete the table by filling in the missing amounts.
Table Item Sample
Fill in the table with first 3 terms of the sequence.

FSA Math UpdateEditing Task Items – Types of Responses
Editing task items require the student to click on a highlighted word or phrase and enter a replacement word or phrase.
FSA Math UpdateEditing Task Choice Items – Types of
Responses
Editing task choice items require the student to click on a highlighted word or phrase and select the replacement word or phrase from the menu.
Another ExampleEditing Task Choice Items – Types of
Responses
Items could combine more than one item type.
FSA Math Updates: Item Types
FSA Math Updates: Conversions
Conversions will be provided in a pop-up window for the grades 5-12 CBT and as a conversion sheet for grade 4.
Formulas Presented
Training Test • FSA training tests will be updated and
released by winter. • FSA item specifications will be
updated and released by winter. • The draft Mathematics Policy
document that is posted to the FSA Portal will be updated by winter to reflect the new information.

Level of Math Talk
Turn and Talk
• How could you use this activity to purposefully spiral in your classroom?
• How did the students deepen their understanding of the concept by being provided multiple opportunities for Math Talk?
Turn and Talk
• How could the teacher have planned for deliberate and purposeful student talk when developing this lesson?
• What can be done to encourage participation from all students during a group activity?
• How could a lesson such as this be designed to be used in spiraling standards?
