Should I grade the 4th Grade Review for the Florida BEST Math Standards?
This depends on the way you assigned the spiral review and the time of year.
If you are using this at the middle of the year and students completed it with a partner, then I would say no. Check for completion and maybe use to collect data for your future small groups and focus lessons.
If students complete the review independently and have learned all the standards for the entire year then I would go ahead and grade the review so you can get an idea of how the students will perform on the 4th grade math FAST assessment.
