PARCC Design
▪ PARCC assesses two formal times during the school year: 75% and 90%
▪ Performance Based Assessments (PBA)
▪ End of Year Assessments (EOY)
▪ Scoring – 5 Levels of performance: Level 1 represents lowest performing and Level 5 represents highest performing
▪ Different from NJASK in that PARCC is an online assessment and is given during two testing windows

PARCC Lingo
▪ Prose Constructed Response (PCR)–Writing Task (write about reading, narratives,
research)
▪ Technology Enhanced Constructed Response (TECR)–Drag & drop, select/deselect, highlight
▪ Evidence Based Selected Response (EBSR)–Multiple Choice

How can I help my child?
▪ Relax and stay positive…if you seem nervous, they will notice and may become nervous too
▪ Make sure your child gets a good night’s sleep
▪ Each testing morning, provide a good healthy and hearty breakfast for your child
▪ Make sure they are wearing comfortable clothes that will not leave them too hot or cold
▪ Encourage them to their best…that is all they can do!
