This assessment is given so teachers can adjust instruction accordingly to help students achieve benchmarks in reading, writing, and math.

Example: Writing portfolio

Students choose one of their writings each month to add to a student collected writing portfolio. Students reflect on their strengths and next steps with this writing sample using a simple rubric. Over time they can see growth in their writing ability through the writing portfolio.

Example: MAP Growth Assessment

MAP is also norm-referenced because it compares scores of like grouped students to each other and ranks those scores accordingly.

Example: SBAC testing

SBAC is a large scale test that measures student scores across the US to like-aged peers and provides data about those scores.

Example: Sight word testing

We test sight words at least once a month, to see if our instruction is helping students learn the sight words. This data does not go in the gradebook. We can adjust instruction if they are not learning as anticipated.

Example: Sight word testing

Our sight word testing process is interim because we monitor student progress at least every month, and this is a pre-determined, set interval for testing to make sure students are learning as anticipated.

Example: MAP Growth

MAP scores are comparative; they compare groups of students based on specific characteristics. MAP is vertically scaled and provides information about progress along a continuum of learning.

Example: SBAC

SBAC testing is high stakes because scores are released and can imply that our school isn't "good" based on these published scores. It can cause parents to school-shop elsewhere. It can cause teachers to feel ineffective and question their ability to teach.

Example: Formative assessments given to check learning

Teachers collect data to monitor student progress during an instructional cycle to make sure all students are learning the material, and adjust teaching strategies as needed to insure success.

Example: Math SLG Assessment

Given to assess student ability to work through a hands on task in math, to prepare them for SBAC once they get in third grade and up. We give this test three times during a three month period to see if our teaching strategies are helping them navigate the performance task in first grade.
