[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]250 seems low? My 4th grader had a 254 on MAP-M at the end of 3rd last year. That’s making me wonder if I should ask if she can go into Compacted 5/6 instead of 4/5….[/quote] It’s a different test. [/quote] The tests overlap and the scoring scales are coordinated. But 250+ on MAP 2-5 shows "excellent at elementary and good at middle school math". A problem with MCPS is that they don't offer what PP is asking about, which is AIM/Prealgebra in 5th. Algebra I 6th kids have to sit through CM 4/5 and 5/6 first, and then jump past 7/8 into Algebra. So either ES is mind numbing, or it's a mad scramble to prepare over the summer before 6th. 250 is crazy low for Algebra 1 in 6th. 250 is for students who are barely passing Algebra, which is fine, but not for kids on a track for 6 more years after Algebra. It should be at least 260.[/quote]
