All teachers want to see their students be successful throughout the year and on year-end assessments. In their success, we can celebrate that learning has occurred, which is the ultimate goal in education! The primary focus when it comes to the year-end assessment of our students in Mississippi is the Mississippi Assessment Program (MAP). In this workshop, participants will learn to access, understand, and interpret available MAP English and Language Arts resources. Instruction and resources will be provided to help participants be able to better prepare their students for answering closed-ended, open-ended, and performance task items by developing, adjusting, and evaluating lessons, units, and assessments to be comparable to MAP testing. Finally, participants will be given instruction on how to locate and synthesize various text forms and genres and be provided with multiple suggestions for differentiating instruction in the ELA classroom.
