M-Step Assessment TransitionGo to the link below to view the M-Step Assessment Transition (or see the handout provided)http://1.usa.gov/1u704g1
● Review Assessment Transition Document● In the interest of time, divide into small
groups of two to three individuals● JigSaw - Divide the document into sections:
Pages (1-3), (4-5), (6-7), and (8-9)

M-Step Assessment Transition (continued)
● Use a “reading strategy”, preferably some form of note taking in the columns or highlighting ◦ Use the following guiding questions:
• What did the document say? Site specific sections of the document.
• What causes me pause?• What are the implications for my
work?● Engage in whole group discussion
◦ Briefly chart key information

MDE M-STEP Practice Test● Take the MDE M-STEP Preview Test
http://bit.ly/1tKe2rY
● As you work on the practice test, and for a few minutes afterward, take note of the technological tools used during the assessment.
● Note that this will be the format of the M-STEP assessment.

Computer Adaptive - Math●Take the test as a student. Work
through as much as you can in the time provided.http://bit.ly/1zddP1C
●As you work and for a few minutes afterward, take notes in the areas of◦Content Standards ◦Skills◦Question Stems
Where do you see connections to the curriculum?

Performance Task (PT)–Classroom Activity Math
●Read through the Classroom Activity script◦ http://goo.gl/QloZbA
◦ Administered before PT, no more than a 3-day lapse; recommend same day for Math
◦ Teacher can record information such as tables, graphs, formulas, etc., but may not have these available during the PT
◦ Students can take notes, but not use them during the PT
◦ May not be supplemented with other material and may only be done once with any student
◦ If absent, a make-up session for the classroom activity must be scheduled

Connections and Reflections
Based on your experience with the M-STEP and Math Smarter Balanced practice tests, explain how the following are relevant to the M-STEP assessment.
● Learner Outcome 1 from the GRPS Academic Plan - All students will read and comprehend increasingly complex text in all content areas.
● The work that we have done for the GRPS Way for Content Literacy (Nov. 3 PD)
Quick Write (3 minutes)Turn and Talk (5 minutes)

Next Steps●Round Table Discussion-Based on our 4 focus areas and your experience with the practice:
What did you notice?What concerns do you have?
● At your table, brainstorm strategies that will help address your concerns.
●Between now and ____, what strategies will you implement with your staff & students to prepare for the M-STEP?
