(Objective 0003) Close reading means looking deeply into a text to uncover its layer of
meaning - the ideas beyond who, what, where, when, how, and why. It involves
inference, analysis, and evaluation. In reading instruction, close reading generally is
undertaken on the second reading of a text and may involve rereading beyond that. It
requires the reader to engage with the text and examine it to arrive at a deeper
understanding of main ideas and key details, the development of ideas, and the

A fourth-grade teacher is creating a list of suggested literary texts to guide students'
independent reading choices. Which of the following factors should the teacher take into
consideration when qualitatively measuring a text's complexity? - ANSWER-The literal
and inferential levels of meaning of the text
(Objective 0001) Text complexity is measured by taking into consideration qualitative
and quantitative measures, and reader and task factors. Qualitative measure are

and inferential comprehension are required to fully understand the text. The more that
inferential meaning is embedded in a story, the more difficult the text complexity is.
A kindergarten teacher asks a student to represent the number 11 with base-ten blocks.
The student first builds a ten-rod and then positions a single cube nearby. Afterward,
the student holds up the single cube and says, "Eleven". This response indicates that
the student may have a misconception about which of the following pairs of counting
concepts? - ANSWER-ordinal numbers and cardinal numbers
,(Objective 0008) Ordinal numbers are used to represent the position of a term in a
sequence and cardinal numbers are used to represent quantity. In this situation, both
the ten-rod and the single cube together represent the number 11. By holding only the
single cube, the student may be implying that the ordinal and cardinal uses of numbers
are equivalent.
A particular triathlon includes swimming, running, and biking. The distance participants
run is 11 times the distance they swim. The distance the bike is 43 miles longer than the
distance they run. The total of all three distances is 70 miles. If x represents the length
of the swim, which of the following equation models this situation? - ANSWER-23x + 43
= 70
(Objective 0010) If x represents mile swim, then 11x represents miles run, and 11x +43
represents miles biked. Add these to get the total number of miles: x + 11x + 11x + 43 =
70. Add like terms: 23x + 43 = 70.
A primary reason for engaging first grade students any nonlocomotor activities such as
bending, pivoting, swaying, rocking, and stretching is to develop students': - ANSWER-
Body control skills, which serves as the foundation for safety and functional living skills
(Objective 0021) non-local motors or axial skills, in which the body remains in place and
moves its access, our fundamental motor skills that create a foundation for developing
body control, safety skills, and functional living skills. Non-locomotor skills such as
stretching, bending, pulling, pushing, swaying, twisting, and balancing promote students
body awareness and spatial awareness. They allow students to maintain stability and
control and moving and when in different physical positions, and enable them to start,
stop, dodge, and balance effectively while moving.
A public policy analysis who favors market-based solutions to arrange of economic
problems is most likely to agree with which of the following statements? - ANSWER-

A rare Japanese 4 o'clock flower is crossed with a white Japanese 4 o'clock flower, and
the resulting flowers are pink. This kind of inheritance is an example of: - ANSWER-
Incomplete dominance
,(Objective 0015) incomplete dominance is a pattern of hereditary in which offspring with
heterozygous genotype displays a phenotype that is blend of the characteristics of the
parent flowers. In this case, if the genotype for the red flowered plant is represented by
the RR combination of alleles and white flowers represented by the rr allele
combination, all offspring would have an Rr genotype that would have pink flowers.
A researcher analyzes data from a survey of 500 randomly select dentist and
determines that 48% of all dentists are employed in group practices. This measurement
is reported with a + 5% margin of error and a 95% confidence interval. Based on this
information, which of the following statements is accurate? - ANSWER-There is a 95
percent probability that the actual percentage of dentists working in group practices is
between 43% and 53%.
(Objective 0007) a confidence interval describes the likelihood of observing a
measurement within a range the civic by the margin of error. In this situation, there is a
95% probability that the actual percentage of dentists working in a group practice is
within the range of 48% +5%.
A second-grade teacher is introducing diphthongs is a phonics lesson with the class by
