 * Description:**

Benchmarks: The purpose of benchmarking is to track and monitor a students progress on a particular learning target. This page contains Sample Benchmark test. Benchmark tests are typically developed with a curriculum map, and are given at different time intervals. Benchmark tests are effectively used best with a combination of formative assessment. These common assessments have been created by a team of High School Numeracy Coaches. Common formative assessments are frequently administered throughout the year to identify (1) individual students who need additional time and support for learning, (2) the teaching strategies most effective in helping students acquire the intended knowledge and skills, (3) program concerns – areas in which students generally are having difficulty achieving the intended standard – and (4) improvement goals for individual teachers and the team.

Pacing guides do not replace lesson planning, and teachers should use the pacing guide as a resource. Due to the high mobility rate in MNPS, the guides are needed across our district. This page contains the efforts of MNPS Numeracy Coaches and Teachers on the MNPS district pacing guides.The guides are still a work in progress. The pacing will remain the same but activities and resources may be added. The chunking and the pacing of the content are required.
