Thursday's Thoughts
February 9, 2017
Let the testing begin....
MAP is now correlated to SCReady. We have new projection sheets that show us where students are projected to score on SCReady based on fall MAP RIT scores. Before MAP testing begins in three weeks, I would like for you to meet with your students to set goals for spring testing after showing them where they are projected to score on SCReady. I will give you your class information for this Monday. I would also like for Matt and I to meet with students in grades 3-5 following spring MAP to discuss goals for the few weeks left before SCReady begins.
I am curious to see how accurate these projections will be. Remember that with PASS projections, students typically scored higher on PASS than MAP projected. We will use this as one piece of the data puzzle for us to help our students stay focused to learn as much as they can before SCReady.
Students in K-2 will begin MAP testing around Mid-March.
