Based off conversation with a student, a LI/ACD/CD will assign the appropriate pre-assessment. In a multitude of cases, an "Add-On Assessment" may also be assigned based on the student's main assessment. The corresponding "Add-On Assessments" are shown above. Here is a quick description of each "Add-On Assessment"
Name | Description |
Numerical Fluency: Addition and Subtraction | A verbal checkup covering basic addition and subtraction arithmetic. |
Numerical Fluency: Multiplication and |
A verbal checkup covering basic multiplication and division arithmetic. |
Computation | An assessment targeting multi-digit arithmetic. |
High School Fundamental Skills | An assessment targeting a variety of skills in preparation for high school. |
Once the student has completed the pre-assessment, it must be graded. Follow the Grading Procedure for more details.
After grading the assessment(s),
