Imagine Math
Using Imagine Math data to inform instruction
Benchmark assessments
The Imagine Math Benchmark was developed by MetaMetrics® and is an inspection
tool used to identify necessary remediation curricular areas and show growth
over time. It is a 30-question, adaptive test and takes 30–45 minutes to complete.
The result of the Benchmark is a Quantile® measure, a performance grade level,
an instructional grade level, and normative rankings. Benchmark 1 is automatically
delivered upon initial login. Two additional benchmarks will be delivered over the
course of the year and will adjust the content a student receives in their pathway
Benchmark reports
Following each benchmark test, students are classified into performance levels. Combined with the Quantile® Measure, performance levels can be used to group students and to determine appropriate instruction.
Teachers and administrators can see student benchmark performance data by logging into their Imagine Math account, clicking on the "reports" tab, and going to "Benchmark". These national performance levels are provided by MetaMetrics and are based on the Quantile score. Use the Imagine Math performance levels pdf below for descriptors of each of the five Imagine Math performance levels.
Standards and Strands reports
Below you will find additional information about each report.
Standards Report (Administrators and Teachers)
- View into how students, classrooms and schools are performing against state standards or Common Core State Standards.
- Commonly used to: reveal mastery of lesson content, understand which standards present the biggest challenges, identify groups of students struggling in common areas to create effective small group instruction, facilitate one-on-one intervention.
- Metrics: number of students demonstrating mastery or difficulty with domains and standards, number of students passing or failing lessons tied to specific standards, percent of student in progress or passed by grade level per school
Strands Report (Administrators and Teachers)
- Students are identified as passing, failing, or struggling in a strand or QSC.
- Commonly used to: reveal mastery of lesson content, understand which standards present the biggest challenges, identify groups of students struggling in common areas to create effective small group instruction, facilitate one-on-one intervention.
- Metrics: number of students demonstrating mastery or difficulty with strands and QSCs, number of students passing or failing lessons tied to specific strands and QSCs, and percent of strands and QSCs in progress or passed be grade level per school
Student Progress report
The Student Progress Report provides
a detailed view of how students are
performing on their pathways as they
use Imagine Math and recommends an
appropriate Application Task. This
report is designed to be printed so
you can share a student’s progress
with families.
Teaching Resources based on Quantile measure and standards
The resources found on the site below are not vetted by Imagine Learning. They are
collected by our assessment partners as an additional resource to support grade level
standards for students at multiple levels of understanding.
