<strong>Student</strong>s in K-6 will be screened this<br />

year by an assessment team made up<br />

of n<strong>on</strong>-classroom building staff<br />

members who will administer the<br />

reading screening three times during<br />

the year—September, December, and<br />

March. This informati<strong>on</strong> will then be<br />

used to provide reading instructi<strong>on</strong> to<br />

meet student needs and m<strong>on</strong>itor their<br />

progress throughout the year. The<br />

screening reduces the time that<br />

teachers have used at the beginning<br />

of the year individually administering<br />

reading tests to all students in their<br />

classrooms, thus increasing the time<br />

that the teacher has for instructi<strong>on</strong>.<br />

This fall students in grades 1-6 will<br />

also be taking adaptive tests in math<br />

(aMath) and reading (aReading). These<br />

tests are akin to the Measures of<br />

Academic Progress (MAP) tests that<br />

students in grades 2-8 have been<br />

taking for many years however, the<br />

aReading and aMath tests are much<br />

quicker in the time it takes for<br />

students to complete the test. The<br />

aReading and aMath tests, like MAP,<br />

adjust the level of difficulty based<br />

<strong>on</strong> how the student answers the<br />

questi<strong>on</strong>.<br />

<strong>Student</strong>s in grades K-2 will take the<br />

aMath and aReading tests again in the<br />

spring so that we can measure their<br />

growth over the school year. <strong>Student</strong>s<br />

in grades 3-6 will take the Minnesota<br />

Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) in<br />

Math and Reading as their spring<br />

assessment.<br />

Some other changes to be aware of<br />

for 2013-14 are that students in<br />

Kindergarten will be tested using the<br />

FAST adaptive tests, however students<br />

in Kindergarten will not be testing<br />

until the winter testing window.<br />

<strong>Student</strong>s in 6th grade will c<strong>on</strong>tinue to<br />

take the MAP test for math as there is<br />

not an aMath test yet.<br />
