Description

The free Problem Solving Assessment Pack includes two tests, a pretest and a posttest, which were designed to help you assess your students' math problem-solving abilities. The pretest data will enable you to determine where to begin with your problem-solving instruction; the posttest data will help you track their progress later. A unique feature of this test is that it requires students to draw pictures to show how they are solving the problems. You'll be amazed at what you can learn from those pictures! Administering this test will also help you differentiate instruction after you analyze the results.

Although an introduction, ostensibly, to the creator's resources, it is an excellent set of assessments on its own. Thank you

I thought these multi step word problems were perfect for my 5th and 6th grade students. I used the tests as practice work. These do make great tests for a unit on word problems because there is a pretest and a similar post test to gather data.

This was free and very useful. I wish there had been more sheets on this same format. I was set up nicely and easy for my students to follow.
