UPS: Unpacking the
Standards for Quality
Assessment Writing-based on Margaret Kilgo’s
Research Model
UPS GOALS
When I leave this training…
I will have a better understanding of the depth and complexity of my content standards.
I will be able to better evaluate my students with assessments that are aligned to the TEKS.
STUDENT EXPECTATIONS TELL YOU THE…
The level at which students are expected to perform in order to adequately meet the standard
The content items for which students must demonstrate understanding at the appropriate cognitive level in order to adequately meet the standard

Supporting Standards
TEKS considered critical for success in the current grade or subject and important for preparedness in the grade or subject that follows
TEKS that are emphasized in a previous or subsequent grade; they play a role in preparedness for the next grade
DEFINITIONS TEKS consist of KS (Knowledge Statement)
and SE (Student Expectation)
Example:KS: E1.1: Students understand new
vocabulary and use it when reading and writing. The student is expected to:
SE: (B) analyze textual context (within a sentence and in larger sections of text) to distinguish between the denotative and connotative meanings of words;
WHAT’S THE DEFINITION? What is the dictionary definition for the verbs in
the TEKS? ANALYZE – break down into components or
essential features, to examine carefully and in detail so as to identify causes, key factors possible results
INFER – to derive by reasoning; conclude or judge from premises or evidence
CONCLUDE – to determine by reasoning ; deduce
PROVIDE – to make available; furnish SUPPORT – to maintain or advocate (a theory,
principle, etc.); to furnish corroborating evidence for

determined by the verb of the SE
“what” will be assessed
“how” the content will be assessed
Rigor:
Content: Context:
RIGORCognition rigor comes from the VERB in the TEKSRigor is not based on Bloom’s Taxonomy, but on
definition of the verbs in the TEKS.
Example KS:
Student analyze, make inferences and draw conclusions
about expository text and provide evidence from text to
support their understanding. Students expected to:
13B draw conclusions from the facts presented in text
and support those assertions with textual evidence.
CONTENT This is the WHAT we are teaching. Content knowledge and concepts tested are tied to the exact wording of the TEKS. Requires students to have prior knowledge of the
content and concept.
KS: Student analyze, make inferences and draw conclusions about expository text and provide evidence from text to support their understanding. Students expected to:
13B draw conclusions from the facts presented in text and support those assertions with textual evidence.
CONTEXT This is the HOW the content should be assessed,
such as “with text evidence” or “provide evidence”
Example
3.13B draw conclusions from the facts
presented in text and support those
assertions with textual
evidence.

DOES THE QUESTION TEST THE SE?
KS: Student analyze, make inferences and
draw conclusions about expository text
and provide evidence from text to support
their understanding. Students expected to:
13B draw conclusions from the facts
presented in text and support those
assertions with textual evidence.
PRACTICE TIMETry it with a genre, a grade level SE and by dipping back to the KS statement.
STOP THINK LISTEN ELA TEKS are assessed through reading passages
Writing common assessment items requires us to know what the student expectation for our grade level is asking
We need to know how to write test items that assess the knowledge and skill statement and the student expectation if BISD students are to be successful
We are all going to practice doing this by using reading passages.
LET’S TRY IT FOR ELA
Get your UPS (Unpacking the Standards) form
What’s first? SE What’s the verb to be assessed? What’s the content to be assessed? What’s the context to be assessed? Choose a selection Read and identify all text evidence that
supports that TEKS Now what?

STARTING WITH THE END IN MIND
Now that we have the assessment items, what about the instruction?
IMPLICATIONS FOR STAAR
Teach and assess TEKS to the extreme of the TEKS/SE. Go to the farthest depth (thinking - cognitive alignment) and complexity (concept, context, & vocabulary alignment)
FINAL THOUGHTS
What did you gain from this?
I will have a better understanding of the depth and complexity of my content standards.
I will be able to better evaluate my students with assessments that are aligned to the TEKS.
