Math Rap Pre-Assessments and Post-Assessments
Pre-Assessment
The pre-assessment measures your students math skill levels before they begin Math Rap, and is presented in the same format and level of difficulty as the post-assessment. At the end of the unit, you will be able to measure math growth by comparing results on the pre- and post-assessment. If you choose to set up a student- and class-tracking system, the pre-assessment will be the first data point to track.
When you give the pre-assessment, you should not count the score toward students grades, as the purpose of the test is to determine how much students need to learn. If you tell your students that it does not count for a grade, explain that they should take the assessment seriously. Make sure to tell them that you don't expect them to know all the words.
If you choose to do classroom tracking, you can share the students averages with them, but it is not necessary to review the answers at this time, as students will gain further practice over the course of Math Rap.
Post-Assessment
You should give the post-assessment to your students upon completion of all units of Math Rap to measure math skill growth from the pre-assessment. You can also use the results of this test as a final data point on a class- or student-tracking chart. When you return the test, you should celebrate how much students have learned since they took the pre-assessment. Wed also love to know how well the program worked for your students. Feel free to email the results to info @ flocabulary.com.
