| 16 | Equal is the same amount for everyone; fair is the right amount for each person based on age, time, and ability. Example: the 14 year old with practice four nights gets fewer weeknight jobs and more weekend jobs; the 5 year old puts toys away instead of doing dishes; the parent who works nights does not get the morning jobs. 1 point for the difference, 1 point for a fair-not-equal example with the reason. | 2 | NYS HDR 5. e); CDOS 3a Managing Resources |

| 20 | Full credit (4): names the four jobs (or at least three of them) and uses two structures from class (nuclear, single parent, blended, extended, adoptive, foster, grandparents raising, guardian) as examples showing each one doing the jobs; states the claim plainly (a family is defined by what it does, not who is in it; no structure is better). 3 points: claim and two structures, but the jobs are named loosely or only two. 2 points: the claim with one structure or no jobs. 1 point: a claim with no example. Three to five sentences; do not take points for length or spelling if the content is there. A student who uses their own family as one of the examples is not marked down; the example still has to show the jobs. | 4 | NYS HDR 5. a), b), c); National FCS 6.1.1, 6.2.1 |

**Total: 50 points.**

Scoring notes:
- Item 19 is the safety scenario. A student who writes "shake" anywhere in c) as something to do earns 0 on c) and gets a conversation, not just a mark.
- Item 20 is Sal's High tiered objective for Types of Families ("defend the idea that no one family structure is better than another using examples") as a test item.
- Items 1 to 8 assume the terms in Lessons 3.1 to 3.9 (stages, four aspects, object permanence, heredity and environment, self-concept, peer pressure, stress causes and the toolkit, refusal lines). [Sal: if those lessons used different labels for the stages or the aspects, change the key, not the students' answers.]
- A retake is one retake after a review, best score counts, per the grading plan. The retake uses the same items with items 14, 18, and 19 reordered.
- Extended time: the test continues at the start of Lesson 4.1 or in a resource period. The test may be read aloud, and item 20 may be answered orally and scribed.
