Michigan M-STEP Test Grade 3
Free M-STEP practice questions for Michigan mathematics and English language arts.
Michigan students in Grades 3–7 take the M-STEP each spring.
The M-STEP is Michigan's statewide test in mathematics and English language arts for Grades 3–7. It is taken on a device and includes multiple choice, multi-select questions, short constructed responses and an essay in ELA.
Results come back as performance levels from 1 to 4 with subscores for claim areas, and the ELA test includes a listening component that plays an audio passage — that part cannot be practised here. Math items ask students to show a method, so writing out the steps is worth practising.
Mathematics
Concepts and procedures, problem solving and modeling, and presenting and interpreting results.
English language arts
Reading literature and information texts, research and inquiry, and writing and editing. The listening items are not simulated.
Constructed responses
Short written answers that explain a method or support a claim with evidence.
- Grade 3–7 Math and English chapters built from Michigan standards
- Multi-select and constructed-response practice
- Hints and worked explanations for every question
- A parent portal showing mastery and weak spots
