Three times this year our students will be given the MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) assessment. The data becomes an important tool for teachers to begin developing learning plans for their classroom (groups) and students (individual). The data includes detailed information they need to build curriculum and meet their students’ needs, helping them to excel. MAP is a computerized adaptive assessment that captures a student's abilities, comparing the data with other students in the school, district and nation. MAP is one of many ways QAE teachers use to create personalized learning. The assessment is delivered with low stress and emphasis (it's fun) - we want students to enjoy the experience and see this as an opportunity for them to show us what they know. Data from the assessment on each student will be shared with parents soon after it becomes available, usually 3-4 weeks after.

To support your child in being more comfortable taking the assessment, it's encouraged that you have a conversation and provide practice. Clicking here will give K-2 students  an opportunity to see what the testing experience will look like and give them a chance to practice using the computer. Students in grades 3-5 will be given a non-audio version.

Practice assessment for the MAP in primary grades.

MAP Schedule: (Computer Lab)
This Mon and Tues - students in grades 3-5 will be assessed in math and reading. (50 minutes). The following days and next week students in grades K-2 will visit the lab four times for 30 minutes - (two assessments for each math and reading).

Feel free to stop by any time to talk about MAP or see it in action.
