What the test measures

Geometry skills

  1. draw and identify lines and angles

  2. classify shapes by properties

  3. reason about shapes and their attributes

  4. understand coordinate and spatial concepts at the grade level

Standards basis

Common Core State Standards (CCSS-M), via the Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics (2017) adopted/used for RICAS alignment — Rhode Island

How the RICAS reports it

RICAS mathematics in grades 3–8 is the Rhode Island-administered version of Massachusetts MCAS math, and RIDE states the Massachusetts framework is strongly aligned with Rhode Island’s Common Core-based mathematics standards. The released-item documents report results under the same framework domains used by the Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics.

Blueprint & weighting

The official source reviewed here did not publish domain percentage weights in the pages/documents retrieved. The released-item documents do state that mathematics results are reported under five MCAS reporting categories identical to the framework domains.

What are the coordinates of the origin?

The origin is where the axes meet, so its coordinates are (0,0).(0, 0)\textsf{.}

Practice playeasy

The xx-axis is ___.

The xx-axis is the horizontal number line on the coordinate plane.

Practice playeasy

What is the xx-coordinate of the point (1,4)?(1, 4)\textsf{?}

The first number in an ordered pair is the xx-coordinate. In (1,4)(1, 4) the xx-coordinate is 1.1\textsf{.}

Practice playeasy

The yy-axis is ___.

The yy-axis is the vertical number line on the coordinate plane.

Practice playeasy

What is the yy-coordinate of the point (2,3)?(2, 3)\textsf{?}

The second number in an ordered pair is the yy-coordinate. In (2,3)(2, 3) the yy-coordinate is 3.3\textsf{.}

Practice playeasy

In the ordered pair (4,7)(4, 7), what is the xx-coordinate?

The first number in an ordered pair is the xx-coordinate. In (4,7)(4, 7) the xx-coordinate is 4.4\textsf{.}

Practice playeasy

The origin on the coordinate plane is at which point?

The origin is where the axes meet, so its coordinates are (0,0).(0, 0)\textsf{.}

Practice playeasy

In the ordered pair (3,5)(3, 5), what is the xx-coordinate?

The first number in an ordered pair is the xx-coordinate. In (3,5)(3, 5) the xx-coordinate is 3.3\textsf{.}
