The Math Content Team has created a 7th Grade NYS Sampler. The sample exams reflect the changes indicated by New York State, and assess what students know and can do relative to the grade-level Common Core Learning Standards for Math. The three “sample books” follow the recommended percentages for clusters, standard emphasis, and domain attribution specified in the “Educator Guide to the 2017 Grade 7 Common Core Mathematics Test”. Books 1 and 2 focus solely on multiple choice questions, while Book 3 incorporates constructed (extended) response questions.
