[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid's growth was in the teens. Also, he went from 85 percentile to 65 percentile. Should I be concerned.[/quote]

I’ve never seen growth in the teens that drops a kid’s percentile. Is this Math or ELA?  I would be concerned about a drop from 85th percentile to 65th, but that doesn’t make sense if the actual score is going up by double digits. Are you looking at Fall to Spring? Previous spring to current spring?  Something is off[/quote]

She is saying the growth percentile is in the teens.[/quote]

Yes this. I'm just surprised that his growth in percentage was so small and not too happy about going from the 85th percentile to the 65th. Yikes.[/quote]

dp but posted on 11:02.

Oooooh the growth percentile is in the teens?

I thought you meant their score improved by about ten or twenty points.

It doesn't sound like your child did well in the MAP test compared to how they did previously, and I'd confirm that they did an honest effort in taking the test and if they did try, make sure they did okay in class and understood what was being taught.

[b]When one of our kids were younger, I think they didn't take the MAP test seriously and would just try to click through as fast as they can to get it over with and we had to emphasize that we expected them to do well on it.[/quote][/b]

This is a good point.[/quote]
