Mathematical Practices
1. Making sense of problems and persevering in solving them2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of
others4. Model with mathematics5. Use appropriate tools strategically6. Attend to precision7. Look for and make use of structure8. Looking for and expressing regularity in repeated
reasoning

Calibrate Smarter Balanced to OAKS
Option 1Set achievement level on Smarter Balanced that represents equivalent rigor on OAKS
Option 2Accept the “meets” level set by Smarter Balanced. Students must receive adequate notice.
