EasyCBM is a norm-referenced test. This means that students are compared to one another. While the percent correct is typically important for classroom assessments, a norm-referenced test uses the percent correct to rank order students. Students scoring at or below the 10th percentile (essentially the bottom 10% of test takers) are identified as high risk with a red label. Students ranking at 11th-25th percentile are identified as moderate risk with a yellow label.

Student progress monitoring is a way to assess student academic performance and can be used to determine student growth of lack thereof. Elementary schools in our county typically use Reading 3D as a progress monitoring tool. At the middle schools, EasyCBM can be used as a progress monitoring tool for reading and math. The following video shows how to assign progress monitoring assessments using EasyCBM.
