This collection of test items from FCAT is provided for Florida citizens. These items, as well as the other resources available on this website, are provided to increase your understanding of how the challenging content of the Sunshine State Standards in Reading and Mathematics is assessed. We hope you find them helpful.

Most of these items have been previously used on FCAT. A few have been used in Sample Test Materials or FCAT Test Item and Performance Task Specifications. In preparing these items for release, slight differences in formatting and appearance were necessary. The content of the items, however, remains the same.

Please Note:

  1. These items are only for Grade 4 Reading, Grade 5 Mathematics, and Grades 8 and 10 Reading and Mathematics. Items for other grade levels are not yet available in sufficient quantities for their release.
  2. There is no answer sheet for these items. Students have an answer sheet on the actual test.
  3. There are fewer items in each set of items than on the actual test. FCAT has approximately 50 items for the reading test and 50 items for the mathematics test.
  4. The number of items selected from the five mathematics strands and four reading clusters is not proportional to the number on the actual test.
  5. These reading passages do not reflect the number or balance between information and literary passages that will be found on the actual test.
  6. The format of the response area for these items may differ from the test. For example, grids are not provided for any mathematics items. On an actual test or answer sheet, some open-ended mathematics items in grades 5-10 would have grids. Copies of for sample items that include grids, refer to the Keys to FCAT or the Sample Test Materials.
  7. Some items that appear in this released set of items would normally not appear together on the same form of an actual FCAT test. In this released set, an item may give clues to the correct answer of a neighboring item.
  8. No items from the FCAT Norm-Referenced Test can be released.
