2014-15 Targets & Norms 2
September, 2014 • St. Croix River Education District
Highlights What’s new?
Updated norms for 3 year old children are included for IGDI’s and Early Literacy.
Preschool Numeracy Indicators (pg. 9) early numeracy norms have been added.
9th and 10th grade MAP Math targets have been updated.
An appendix has been added, including clarification on the differences between norms and predictive targets.
All norms are listed in italics; predictive targets are in normal print.
What’s the same?
Oral Reading Fluency and MAP Reading data from 2013-14 were analyzed by TIES. Results were nearly identical to those obtained in the previous school year, and the ORF and MAP Reading targets will remain the same in the 2014-15 school year.
Written Expression norms are the same. They are not scheduled to be updated until the 2017-18 school year.

A note about goal setting:
Goals for interventions should be ambitious, but realistic. For measures that have multiple benchmarks: individual student goals can be written for students to reach the greatest benchmark target score (labeled as “low risk”) unless an IEP team for a particular student entitled to special education services determines a different goal for that student.

*E3 scores are normative performance scores for children that are 3 years old by Sept 1st (Norms are based on data from Minnesota Reading Corps.) *E4 & E5 scores are Target Scores for Spring Prior to Entering Kindergarten, and predict Kindergarten Fall LNF success. *Moderate and high risk targets are based on professional judgment distinguishing between students who are near target from those far from target. Note: The spring scores will be set in TIES for each benchmark season (Fall, Win, Spr) so that teachers can see how students are making progress toward the spring norm or predictive target as the year progresses.

*E3, E4 and E5 scores are normative performance scores for students that are 3 years old by Sept 1st. Norms are based on an analysis completed by the University of Minnesota. Note: The spring scores will be set in TIES for each benchmark season (Fall, Win, Spr) so that teachers can see how students are making progress toward the spring norm as the year progresses.

QDM First Grade: Many students end up in the moderate risk (yellow) category on this measure. Therefore our advice is that you look at other indicators in addition, (in-class work, curriculum tests, and teacher recommendations) to determine who needs supplemental intervention.
QDM First Grade:
About 80% of the students who are at low risk will meet the Fall 2nd Grade MAP target.
About 66% of the students at high risk will not meet the Fall 2nd Grade MAP target. Students who complete the entire probe in less than one minute should be given a score of 41.
*Note: The Oral Counting Fluency and Missing Number Fluency used in this analysis are the same as those available for download on AIMSweb, but the Quantity Discrimination Measure is different: the version used for this analysis was revised to be inclusive of numbers 0-31 in Kindergarten, and 0-100 in Grade 1. Student performance on AIMSweb Quantity Discrimination Fluency probes should not be interpreted relative to the targets provided here.

Based on a review of prior student data, we have confidence that students scoring ≥ 37 facts correct per minute in the spring of grade 5 are highly unlikely to score below 30 facts correct per minute on math facts assessments in grades 6-8, and as such may be excluded from math facts testing in these grades. Based on a review of prior student data, we have confidence that students scoring ≥ 35 facts correct per minute in the fall of grade 6 are highly unlikely to score below 30 facts correct per minute on math facts assessments in grades 6-8, and as such may be excluded from math facts testing in these grades.

Appendix - FAQ
What is the difference between the targets and the norms?
The “low risk”, or green category, numbers in this packet are considered to be targets. A
“target” is a specific, meaningful level of performance at a certain time. The targets given in
this packet are predictive—they predict how a student will perform on another test in the
future. These predictive targets help us understand the extent to which a student is likely to
master grade level standards (indicated by passing the MCAs). They can help us evaluate the
effectiveness of core instruction, and can help identify which students require supplemental
or intensive intervention.
“Norms” are numbers that summarize the range of scores that groups of students typically
receive on a measure. These numbers don’t necessarily predict how a student will perform on
some later test, but they can still help us identify which students might be at risk.
For which measures does this packet report predictive targets?
- IGDIs for 4 and 5 year olds
- AIMSweb TEL for 4 and 5 year olds
- ORF
- MAP Reading
- OCF, MNF, QDM
- Math Facts
- MCAP
- MAP Math
For which measures are norms reported in this packet?
- PNIs
- IGDIs for 3 year olds
- Non-timed Letter Naming for 3 year olds
- Written Expression (WE-CBM)
Some of the measures we use were created by SCRED, and are not the same as their
counterparts in AIMSweb. Which ones were created by SCRED?
