Delaware Student Testing Program Item Sampler: [Commentaries for 2001] Text-Based Writing, Grade 3.
Delaware State Dept. of Education, Dover.
The purpose of this document is to familiarize educators and parents with the text-based portion of the Delaware Student Testing Program (DSTP) writing assessment for third grade. The DSTP writing assessment consists of one "stand-alone" writing prompt (representing 2/3 of the overall writing score) and one "text-based" prompt (representing the other 1/3 of the overall writing score). This document contains the DSTP General Rubric for Writing; the actual text-based writing prompt at third grade for 2001; and examples of student responses for each score point on the writing rubric. Comments explaining the score points are provided in an effort to clarify the text-based writing prompt. (RS)
