[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could this have anything to do with the way math was taught?  Instead of straight math it was a confusing clfk of composing and decomposing, addends and many other tear inducing and hair pulling strategies that didn’t translate to higher math learning?  [/quote]

This is the level of math demanded by the Common Core State Standards.  Unfortunately, we have to teach to the standard.  I want my students to know that there are multiple strategies to reach an answer but I agree, it gets to be a little too much at times.

As far as MCAP goes, even at the elementary level there are many adults who wouldn't be proficient. I care more about MAP scores than MCAP.  MCAP is a colossal waste of time.  We have four days of ELA and four days of math testing when we return from spring break. That's eight blocks of time I could be teaching my students the skills I know they need rather than wasting our time assessing them on skills I know they have or don't have because I work with them daily.
