2. Modify rosters as needed for additional information included on answer sheets

• Student Date of Birth

• Form Letter/ Form Number

• Anticipated Grade and Achievement Level

• Accommodations Provided

Using rosters for state testing

See notes on this slide for how to pull rosters

(NCEXTEND1 or NCEXTEND2)

• First Year in US Schools LEP exemption

• Medical exemption


33

4. On test day, teachers use the roster to identify absent students and special codes for answer sheets• May also use rosters to note:o Students needing extended time (answer

sheet in a separate location)o Double check that students are pulled out as

necessary for accommodations (identify on roster before testing)

o Double check that students not participating in testing are excluded


34

5. Use the roster to ensure all answer sheets are included behind the appropriate header• Ensure all answer sheets for pullout groups

are returned to the appropriate header• Ensure all absent students are scheduled

for make-up testing• Add up the running total number of answer

sheets per subject area/grade level


35

6. Bring the roster to scanning to ensure all answer sheets are scanned• Compare the running total of answer

sheets to the total from Winscan• Compare the total number of students

on the roster to the total number of students on the scanning printout

• If student results are missing, use the roster to identify the specific student

• Rosters can also be used to correct errors on answer sheets
