How to Score a 4 on Extended Response
Extended response is a significant portion of the
Math ISAT Score and could be the difference
between meeting and exceeding. Here are some
points to be sure that the students cover when
writing a math extended response:
Mathematical Knowledge
• I get the right answer
• I label my answer correctly
• I use the right math words to show I understand
how math works. (Example: I know when to
add or subtract.)
• I work it out with no mistakes.
Strategic Knowledge
• I find all the important points of the problem,
and I know how they go together.
• I show a good plan about how I got my answer.
• I show all of my steps I use to solve the problem.
Explanation
• I write what I did and why I did it.
• If I use a drawing, I can explain all of it in
writing.
