Pennsylvania Assessment Anchors

 
The Assessment Anchors are one of the many tools that the Pennsylvania Department of Education has developed to better align curriculum, instruction and assessment practices throughout the state.  PDE first released the Assessment Anchors for Mathematics and Reading in the spring of 2004. The Assessment Anchors, like the Standards, are dynamic documents and will be adjusted periodically.

They can be used by educators to help prepare their students for the exams. Schools are required to shape instruction so that students will meet these standards.
