Did you hear your child say, “CBM and MAZE?”


Students in grades one through five will be administered an assessment call a Curriculum Based Measure (CBM). CBMs measure reading rate and accurately a child can read short grade level passages. Students in grades two through five will also be given an assessment called the MAZE, which analyzes a child’s reading comprehension. Both of these assessments, in addition to the Measures of Academic Performance assessment (MAP) and classroom measures, will be used to tailor instruction for your child. Your child’s teacher will be happy to share these results with you during parent teacher conferences.
