TeST LeVeLSThe concepts and skills assessed by each level of Stanford 10 are those ordinarily taught during the second half of any given year and the first half of the following year. This midyear-to-midyear configuration—with students tested in the spring of one grade and the fall of the next—provides a more focused assessment and greater opportunity to monitor academic growth. At the high school levels, where the TASK levels assess basic skills, a single level is appropriate for use in both the fall and spring of the same school year.
FORMSForms A and D are identical with the exception of the format of the Comprehensive Language subtest. The Form A Language subtest (for Primary 1–TASK 3) uses a traditional approach that measures language proficiency through the assessment of language mechanics and expression. The Form D Comprehensive Language subtest (for Primary 1–TASK 3) uses a comprehensive approach that assesses language proficiency in a more holistic fashion through actual writing processes.

ReADiNGThe Reading subtests measure a broad spectrum of essential reading components and are aligned with IRA/NCTE standards, state standards, and the National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP). Reflecting a balanced, developmental curriculum and sound instructional practices, these subtests assess the following areas at appropriate grade levels: phonemic awareness, decoding, phonics, vocabulary, and comprehension.
Stanford 10 places an emphasis on assessing foundation skills that are critical to early literacy. The Sounds and Letters subtest closely reflects reading research findings on the importance of phonemic awareness and phonics. Word Study Skills and Sentence Reading are evaluated across a broader age range than in previous editions. This assessment of literacy development in the early grades helps ensure that students are progressing at every stage on the road to literacy.
Reading Comprehension SubtestThe Stanford 10 Reading Comprehension subtest is based on research about the contexts and activities that are most effective for reading instruction and assessment. The Stanford 10 framework involves three major purposes for reading (literary, informational, and functional) and multiple modes of comprehension (initial understanding, interpretation, critical analysis, and awareness and usage of reading strategies).
Authentic reading selections commissioned from published authors of children’s and young people’s literature help create a level playing field for all students and reflect diverse multicultural themes to appeal to students of varying backgrounds, experiential levels, and interests.
Students who take the full-length Reading Comprehension subtest at Primary 1–TASK 3 levels can receive a Lexile® score. The Lexile Framework defines and sequences reading materials in terms of difficulty and allows you to identify customized reading lists for students based on their reading achievement. For information about the use of Lexiles, see PearsonLexile.com.
ac h i eve m e nt
here are some reasons to have norm-referenced tests (NRTs) in your toolbox:
• Local assessments can complement the state assessment.
• National norms compare individual student, building, and district performance with the nation as a whole. Not only is this unique information, but also National Percentile Ranks are broadly understood scores.
• NRTs efficiently cover five measures in one test—reading, math, science, social studies, and language.
• With NRTs, it is possible to monitor growth over time, providing convincing evidence of improvement by following the progress of students from year to year.
Authentic Reading Selections
Stanford 10 is the only standardized achievement test to provide reading selections written expressly for Stanford 10 by authors of children’s and young people’s literature. These authentic selections create a level playing field for all students, and they include a variety of topics and diverse cultural themes that will appeal to students of varying backgrounds, experiential levels, and interests.

MATheMATiCSThe Mathematics subtests align with the NAEP and measure concepts and processes based on the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (PSSM) and state standards. Concepts assessed include number sense and operations; patterns, relationships, and algebra; geometry and measurement; and data, statistics, and probability. Questions also evaluate processes in computation and representation; estimation; mathematical connections; and reasoning and problem solving. To enhance test interpretation, the subtests provide consistency in names of content clusters across levels.
Mathematics Problem Solving measures the skills and knowledge necessary to solve problems in mathematics. Mathematics Procedures measures the ability to apply the rules and methods of arithmetic to problems that require arithmetic solutions.
Both standard and metric rulers are used in the Mathematics Problem Solving and Mathematics subtests for the Primary 1–TASK levels. A mathematics reference sheet that provides the formulas necessary to solve problems is included for the Advanced and TASK levels. Calculator use is an option in the Mathematics Problem Solving subtest beginning at the Intermediate 1 level and in the Mathematics subtest at the TASK levels.
LANGuAGeAligned with IRA/NCTE standards and state standards, the Stanford 10 Language subtest measures students’ achievement in applying the principles that form effective writing. From word- and sentence-level skills to whole composition features, the subtest engages students in real-life activities. Stanford 10 offers a choice of Language subtests to suit different language arts instructional approaches.
The Traditional Language subtest (Form A) measures proficiency in mechanics and expression in three different sections. The first section measures language mechanics (capitalization, punctuation, and usage) with questions that resemble an actual editing task with a variety of embedded errors. The second section assesses language expression as students demonstrate their understanding of sentence structure. The third section provides language expression items that include objectives typically evaluated in the direct assessment of writing.
An alternative Comprehensive Language subtest (Form D) provides an integrated test that replicates the writing process as closely as possible in a testing situation. This subtest measures pre-writing, composing, and editing in a holistic fashion that resembles authentic writing tasks.
SPeLLiNGThe Spelling subtest assesses objectives based on the phonetic and structural principles taught at each grade level. At Primary 1, the subtest is dictated and students choose from three options. Beginning at the Primary 2 level, the spelling items reflect real-life editing tasks because they are presented in context rather than as isolated words. Each spelling item consists of one sentence with three underlined words. Starting at Primary 3, an additional “No Mistake” option is offered, reinforcing the authenticity of the task. The misspellings used reflect students’ most common spelling errors.

LiSTeNiNG COMPReheNSiONStanford 10 helps assess both listening vocabulary and comprehension at K–Grade 9 levels in recognition of the importance of listening skills in literacy development, instruction, and everyday life. The Listening subtests emphasize listening strategies and provide a wide variety of selections that includes multicultural representation.
In the Listening Vocabulary section, students demonstrate recognition of the common meanings of spoken words encountered in various types of activities. The Listening Comprehension section uses dictated selections and questions that reflect the listening materials students hear in school and outside of the classroom. This section parallels the Reading Comprehension subtest, using literary, informational, and functional texts to measure the same modes of comprehension: initial understanding, interpretation, and critical analysis and strategies.
SCieNCeThe Science subtest assesses students’ understanding of the life, physical, and earth sciences, and the nature of science with questions that elicit problem solving and inquiry using a basic understanding of science. Reflecting current science practice and research, this subtest aligns with the National Science Education Standards (National Research Council), the Benchmarks for Science Literacy (American Association for the Advancement of Science), and state standards.
Students must use reasoning skills throughout the subtest to reach answers. These skills include estimating, making simple calculations, seeking patterns, making observations, recognizing cause and effect, reading standard instruments, and drawing conclusions. Students are challenged to apply foundation concepts and skills as they think through questions.
SOCiAL SCieNCeThe Social Science subtest measures the concepts important for the development of citizenship and strongly emphasizes critical thinking skills. Giving equal attention to history, geography, political science, and economics, the subtest maintains a balance between national and international issues. It reflects current social studies standards, practices, and research and is aligned with the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) Curriculum Standards for Social Studies and state standards.
Using the National Standards for History as a guideline, the history questions focus on the history of the United States, Western civilization, and non-Western people and societies who share our interdependent world. Geography questions, which are based on the Geography for Life: National Geography Standards, cover the themes of location, places, human-environment interaction, movement, and region.
The political science component helps assess students’ basic understanding of the U.S. system of government as outlined in the National Standards for Civics and Government. The economics questions are based on the Voluntary National Content Standards in Economics.

STANFORD SCALe ALLOWS yOu TO MONiTOR STuDeNT GROWThThe Stanford Scale expresses student performance across all test levels of a subtest or total score. For example, the Reading Comprehension subtest is linked across 11 test levels (Primary 1–TASK 3), forming one continuous scale that makes it possible to compare scores from test level to test level. This scale is especially helpful for comparing student performance in a particular subject area over time.
The Stanford Scale offers an objective, consistent tool to monitor student achievement across years and multiple assessments. Many of our tests are linked to this scale. From broad-based assessment to classroom diagnostic evaluation, teachers and administrators can relate student performance to a common metric and monitor students’ educational development.
scoring & reporting servicesStanford 10 helps educators make data-driven decisions. A range of user-friendly score reports, designed with the input of administrators and teachers across the country, supports teaching, learning, and accountability requirements. The reports include narrative summaries, process and cluster summaries, and graphic displays to clarify the student’s performance and guide planning and analysis. (See pp. 19–22 for sample score reports.)
Administrators obtain critical data to document and monitor the progress of all children and to disaggregate results according to federal mandates.

For example, using a Stanford 10 multilevel norms booklet, an educator can compare percentile ranks and stanines for students who take SESAT 2 Sentence Reading and then take Primary 1 Reading Comprehension at a later time. It is not possible, however, to compare a Reading Comprehension scaled score to a Mathematics scaled score. Each subtest and total has its own system of scaled scores.
