[quote=Anonymous]Trying to wrap my mind around MAP-M testing. Does it attempt to measure aptitude/any inherent qualities of the child's math talents and capacity? Or is it just simply a measure of what math concepts they have been taught and have mastered? My kid's MAP-M scores in 2nd grade were 193/197/194, falling from 92nd percentile to 63rd percentile. (In K and 1st she was in the 70th-85th percentile range.) Should we read anything into this regarding her math skills and abilities for the future? Or are these test results basically just indicating that she didn't learn much in math in 2nd grade, which I suppose makes sense if she was above grade level to start and already knew most of what they teach in 2nd grade? (We don't do any kind of "supplementing" at home.) Her report cards said she got enrichment in math, but maybe there wasn't actually much of it or it wasn't very effective? [/quote]
