MAP Growth K‑2 Tests
If chosen by your school, there are three tests you can use to assess your early learners. All tests are audio-enabled to help young readers:
MAP Growth K‑2 |
Adaptive test to assess growth from one term to the next and obtain learning statements to identify what the student is ready to learn. |
Spanish MAP Growth K‑2 | Same as MAP Growth K–2 but for Spanish-speaking students (either native speakers or those receiving instruction in Spanish) |
Screening: |
Get baseline information for a new student who is in the earliest stages of learning, particularly a kindergarten or pre-K student (not recommended beyond kindergarten). |
Skills Checklist: | Assess knowledge of a specific skill before or after teaching it. There are 38 skills to choose from in mathematics and reading; scored as percent correct. |
Practice tests (English and Spanish) are also available to help K‑2 students prepare |
How to Choose Between Tests
Each teacher should plan the best testing for their students. For tips and details, see: Early Learner Testing.
Practice Tests and Other Tips
There are K-2 practice tests available to help prepare your early learners for computer-based testing. See Administering Tests for Early Learners.
