Abstract/Description
STAAR 2.0 includes new question types across all content areas and grade levels that are unfamiliar to educators and students. These new question types include short constructed responses (SCRs), multiselect questions, multipart questions, and extended responses. Educators and students should be aware of the literacy demands required with these changes. This article will describe the new question types, analyze the skills required to attack the questions, consider the literacy significance for the different content areas, and provide instructional support for educators.
