Anybody who tells you differently is selling you something.[/quote]

Does it? I can teach a parrot to say multiplication tables correctly, does that mean the parrot understands multiplication?[/quote]

It means that when you teach the parrot math concepts and associations they’ll see it better and use it faster and not count on their fingers.

Isn’t map test give you as many problems as you can handle? A concept kid doing 10 problems correctly won’t get as high of a score as a math fact + concept kid doing 20 problems correctly. [/quote]

It's the opposite. MAP is 40 questions untimed, and adaptive. Inquisitive problem-solvers scores far above grade level because they can take time to solve problems they've never been taught how to do (as long as they understand the vocab and symbols in the question). [/quote]

If you have the reps and the concepts you get through the tougher questions correctly.

Private school kids don’t prep for erb or map, and their scores are always less than top public districts who do prep and cover more material.[/quote]
