MAP for Primary Grades tests provide teachers with an efficient way to assess ability levels of early learners so they can spend less time on individual diagnostics and more time teaching.

Districts curriculum may be adjusted based on students’ test results and information from the MAP site.

Materials and staff developments may also be factors to consider based on test results.

The power of assessment results is not in the numbers - it is

what you do with the information.

The MAP for Primary Grades reports display data from the Screening and Skills Checklist tests giving teachers excellent tools for planning differentiated instruction.
