What kind of written test is on the ISATs?

The Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) measures the achievement of students in reading and mathematics in grades three through eight and science in grades four and seven. Administrators, curriculum directors, and teachers should use the Illinois Learning Standards as the primary resource in preparing students for the 2013 ISAT in science at grades 4 and 7. The Illinois Assessment Frameworks and Common Core Standards outline the general content specifications for grades 3 through 8 in reading and mathematics.
