This bank contains questions aligned to the WCP (1995 and 1996). Problem-Attic does not include as extensive a breakdown of questions as originally appeared in WCP. To make navigation easier (so you don't have to go up and down as many levels), we show the only the major categories, which were called “general outcomes”, not the objectives underneath them. You can see the complete breakdown here.

These questions come from documents that would be considered old, but which many people, including those of us who make Problem-Attic, hold in high regard. The standards were developed shortly after the release of the NCTM Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (1989). This was a fertile period for development of non-multiple-choice assessments and a major milestone toward standards-based instruction.

WCP has two qualities which make them both exemplary and useful, even many years after their publication:

• The writers did not just produce a curriculum framework, they gave examples of what students should know and be able to do for every single objective from kindergarten through high school.
• For nearly all objectives, the writers provided both a multiple-choice and free-response or open-ended question, to show alternative forms of assessment.

These questions can added to documents in the normal way or re-aligned to new standards using Problem-Attic's new alignment tool.
