Each Mathletics Pretest assesses a student's knowledge related to a specific strand or skill set. The majority of the test items reflect the skills as they are presented to the students in the Skill Packs. Completing the pretests throughout the entire program allows the student to experience a balance between procedural and conceptual assessment. Once a student completes a test and the test is graded, the teacher has prescriptive information and can assign activities based on the studen's individual needs.
