About the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP)
The California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) serves as California’s official measurement of math skills for elementary students. Conducted January–June, it tests the standards set out in the California Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CA CCSS).
For grade 3 math, the CAASPP assesses knowledge across areas like multiplication & division, place value & computation, fractions, time, mass & volume, and more. Students encounter multiple-choice, constructed-response, and performance-based items.
Our practice tests are designed to match the format, difficulty, and content of the real CAASPP, so students know exactly what to expect on test day.
