Grade 6 Mastery Test in Mathematics. Handbook for Teachers.
Carter, Betsy Y.
This handbook is part of a series of three, corresponding to the three grades (4, 6, and 8) at which Mastery Tests are administered. This publication was written as a resource for teachers developing mathematics programs for students in grades 4, 5, and 6. The Mastery Test in Mathematics at Grade 6 assesses student performance for 36 instructional objectives. The following information is provided for each objective: (1) Appropriate Materials (manipulative materials to use for exploring the concept); (2) Enabling Skills and Activities (a description of prerequisite skills and activities); (3) Sample Lessons (student activities that build toward mastery); (4) Teacher Resource Materials; and (5) Mathematics Objectives and Sample Test Items. The instructional objectives are grouped into four categories: (1) conceptual understandings; (2) computational skills; (3) problem solving and applications; and (4) measurement and geometry. Two appendixes are included: Appendix A contains the sample test items and objectives; Appendix B is a list of commercial suppliers of mathematics manipulatives. (RH)
