INTRODUCTION
This document provides specific information about the open-ended questions on the
Alabama Reading and Mathematics Test (ARMT). It is intended to give an overview of
how responses to open-ended questions are scored and to provide responses at each score
point.
This document includes two open-ended questions from previous administrations of the
ARMT. Each open-ended question is followed by the scoring rubric and three responses
for each score point. Sample responses will include annotations and explanations on
scoring decisions.

GLOSSARY OF COMMON TERMS
Annotations: A brief explanation of why a paper has received the score it has,
emphasizing the specific ways it is representative of that score point and
sometimes pointing out what is lacking that may have made it a higher score
point.
Invalids: Refers to student responses which do not meet criteria for scorability. For
example, blank papers; off-task and/or off-topic papers; papers containing only
irrelevant marks or images. These papers receive a score of zero.
Item: A question for which a score or set of scores is to be recorded based on the
response.
Logic: The correct operation performed on the correct numbers. An error in
transcription or omission of numbers from a list leads to a lack of full logic.
Incorrect numbers resulting from a computation, transcription, or omission error
in an early part of a response are considered part of correct logic when
appropriately used in subsequent sections of the response.
Open-ended response: Complex assessment items/tasks that can be approached or
solved in more than one way and have more than one accurate response. Students
are asked to include reasons for their conclusions.
Rubric: Written descriptions of the performance evidence or behaviors expected at each
level or score point on the scale for open-ended items.
Score point: A numerical value representing the level of success a constructed response
achieves in relation to the rubric and the descriptors for each score point.

Sample Paper 1
Score Point 1
A---The logic (addition of 3 feasible numbers) is correct and one answer
(the total) is correct, but no list is given. The student adds the weights of
the chocolate stars (1.092), jawbreakers (1.004), and peppermints (0.921).
The combined weight of these three candy selections is 3.017, which is
over 3 pounds. There is a transcription error, the chocolate stars weigh
1.082, not 1.092 pounds, but the answer is consistent with that mistake.
B---The logic and answer are missing. The student states “There is no
other way.”
According to the rubric, this response earned a score point of 1 because “One logic and one answer are correct.”

Sample Paper 2
Score Point 1
A---The logic (addition of 3 feasible numbers) is correct and one answer
(the total) is correct, but no list is given. The student adds the weights of
the chocolate stars (1.082) and the licorice sticks (0.998). This totals to
2.080. The student then adds the weight of the peppermints (0.921). This
gives a correct answer of 3.001.
B---The logic (subtraction) is incorrect, and the answer is incorrect. The
student subtracts the weight of the gumballs (0.573) from the weight of
the licorice sticks (.998), reaching an answer of .425. The student then
subtracts this weight (.425) from the weight of the peppermints (0.921).
Even though the subtraction is done correctly in both steps of part b, no
credit may be given for a correct answer because the logic is faulty.
According to the rubric, this response earned a score point of 1 because
“One logic and one answer are correct.”

Sample Paper 3
Score Point 1
A---The logic (addition of 3 feasible numbers) is correct, but the answer
(total) is incorrect, plus no list is given. The student adds the weights of
the licorice sticks (0.998), chocolate stars (1.082), and peppermints
(0.921). The total is incorrect and the list is missing.
B---The logic and answers are missing.
According to the rubric, this response earned a score point of 1 because “One logic is correct.”

Sample Paper 4
Score Point 2
A---The logic (addition of 3 feasible numbers) is correct and the answers
(total and list) are correct. The student listed three candies, along with
three candy weights. The student adds chocolate stars (1.082),
jawbreakers (1.004), and licorice sticks (0.998) to a correct total of 3.084,
which is over 3 pounds.
B---Part b is not attempted. The “b” shown in the answer refers to the
addition of the part a candies.
According to the rubric, this response earned a score point of 2 because
“All of part a or all of part b is correct.”

Sample Paper 5
Score Point 2
A---The logic (addition of 3 feasible numbers) is correct and one answer
(total) is correct. The student adds the weights of the chocolate stars
(1.082), licorice sticks (0.998), and peppermints (0.921). The combined
weight of these three candy selections when added together is 3.001,
which is over 3 pounds. No list is given.
B---The logic (addition of 3 feasible numbers) is correct and one answer
(total) is correct. The student adds the weights of the licorice sticks
(0.998), jawbreakers (1.004), and chocolate stars (1.082). The combined
weight of these three candy selections when added together is 3.084,
which is over 3 pounds. Again, no list is given.
According to the rubric, this response earned a score point of 2 because “All logics are correct.”

Sample Paper 6
Score Point 2
A---The logic (addition of 3 feasible numbers) is correct and the answers
(total and list) are correct. The student adds the weights of the chocolate
stars (1.082), licorice sticks (0.998), and jawbreakers (1.004). The
combined weight of these three candy selections when added together is
3.084, which is over 3 pounds.
B---The logic (addition of 3 feasible numbers) is correct but the answers
(total and list) are partially correct. The student adds the weights of the
chocolate stars (1.082), peppermints (0.921), and jawbreakers (1.004).
The combined weight of these three candy selections when added together
is 3.007, which is over 3 pounds. The answer is missing the decimal point
and therefore wrong.
According to the rubric, this response earned a score point of 2 because “All of part a or all of part b is correct.”
