How do I assign State Practice Assessments?

We recommend that these state practice assessments be given to students one time around six weeks prior to your end-of-year state assessments. This will allow time to collect data and target skill gaps for review and remediation.

There are two ways that you can assign a State Practice Test.

From the Assignment Builder

  1. From the side menu select Assignments and click on Create Assignment.
  2. Type your Assignment Name and select a Subject. Click on Continue.
  3. From the Activity Type coloumn, select Premium Assessments. Click the plus sign to add the assessment.
  4. Select the class(es)/student(s) for the state practice assessment assignment and click "Save and Continue."
  5. Select your Start Date and Due Date. You may also adjust the Number of attempts or set a Minimum Score Requirement. You may also choose to Allow Students to Retry Missed Items. Once you have all of your settings in place, select "Save Assignment".

From the Assessment Bank

  1. Choose Assessment from the left side menu and click on the Assessment Bank
  2. Click on the Premium Assessments tab and filter by Subject
