Of all the resources in my store, this is the one thing I could not live without.
- The assessment provides valuable data, which informs math instruction and remediation.
- It helps me form year-long, ad-hoc, and tutoring groups.
- The record-keeping sheets let me know who still needs help - and who doesn't.
Seriously, it's a lifesaver!
Enjoy teaching,
