Common Core State Standards (CCSS-M), via the Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics (2017) adopted/used for RICAS alignment — Rhode Island
Students solve problems involving angle measure, similarity, area, volume, and geometric transformations. This Grades 6-8 reporting domain maps to 16 practice skills and 8 representative questions from the playable bank.
Common Core State Standards (CCSS-M), via the Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics (2017) adopted/used for RICAS alignment — Rhode Island
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.
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.
