[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Until 3rd grade the MAP is administered by some of the questions being read out loud to kids on the computer. That could be an issue as well. I found my bookworm kid was breezing through the tests in 2nd and 3rd and not actually paying attention to what was asked. I'd work on that as well. [/quote] I believe there are several versions of the test. One for K-2 that is read aloud and a 2-5 version that is not. They also test different skills. My kid didn't so so well on the K-2 version despite being an excellent reader because he didn't seem to get the phonics questions. But in the middle of 2nd grade, they switched to the 2-5 version which didn't have phonics - just things like vocabulary and reading comprehension. He did phenomenally well on the MAP from then on. Did great on the ACT and remains a good reader in college.[/quote]
