MAP Skill Profile - Reading Literature: Key Ideas, Reading for Understanding
Winter MAP tests are scheduled for January, and we want students to remain focused on pursuing skill-based goals. We also want parents to have information about the specific skills and proficiencies that students are acquiring and mastering. The last MAP skill profile focused on Informational Text. This week's focus is on Literature, although parents will notice that the same set of skills - reading for key ideas and reading for understanding - apply to both kinds of text.
NWEA (the people behind MAP tests) define Reading Literature: Key Ideas, Reading for Understanding: "Students can read and comprehend literary texts, make inferences and predictions, and draw conclusions. They can determine key ideas, analyze the development of themes, and summarize.." The link below shows examples of skills and the score ranges related to the questions students might be asked.
