Reading Inclusion Bank - Literary Task Matrix

Mandatory Online COE submission for Reading collections in 2012-2013.

We are providing these materials for summer school students and those schools that use an offline method of producing online COE work samples.

Summer school students developing paper-based collections are required to submit the Request for Exemption from the Online COE Form to OSPI in order to receive access to the required submission forms.

Inclusion Tasks
Inclusion tasks are tasks designed specifically for use by students and are eligible for inclusion in a Collection of Evidence. These tasks have been created by teachers throughout the State of Washington. The inclusion tasks have been set apart from the Classroom Practice Tasks for a number of reasons and are therefore not to be used for instructional purposes. The tasks and resulting work samples are built and developed around important reading skills. These are the same skills assessed on the state assessment through the High School Proficiency Exam (HSPE). With inclusion tasks, teachers will need to limit their assistance so the work sample is truly a reflection of student work. Inclusion tasks will be in PDF format and are not to be edited. The goal is to have enough tasks in the inclusion bank so that the students have a wide variety of tasks and topics to choose from.

Only inclusion tasks are eligible for inclusion in a student Collection of Evidence to be submitted for scoring.
