Districts are now making a change to place more attention on the area of mathematics. The challenge of helping all students at their level of instruction has become more noticeable and systems are beginning to make a change to the response to intervention model. More of an importance is placed on monitoring students and ensuring that all are receiving appropriate instruction and interventions. Curriculum-based measurement in math offers an efficient way to assess and monitor progress in math calculation. The current study examines the technical adequacy of a school created math screening tool by investigating reliability and criterion related validity of the measure. The relationship between the screening tool, the WASL math test, and a published math CBM with national norms (AIMSweb) is examined with a sample of 278 fourth and fifth grade students. The screener demonstrated strong reliability evidence and has some evidence for validity"--Document.
