Curriculum-Based assessment

Curriculum-based assessment (CBA) is a method of evaluating students that use academic knowledge taken straight from the classroom. This is a type of criterion-referenced assessment that links evaluation to instructional programs by educating teachers about both student success and learning difficulties.

Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) is a technique used by teachers to determine how pupils are progressing in basic academic areas like math, reading, writing, and spelling. When your child's teacher uses CBM, he or she can see how far your child has progressed in learning the academic year's curriculum.

Effective curriculum-based assessment to determine progress

Fluency-

To properly test fluency, the teacher can time a group of students reading and compare their results.

Comprehension

Asking a student to read a passage of text that is tiered correctly for the child's age or grade and then asking specific, comprehensive questions on the substance of the text is one sort of reading comprehension assessment.

Spelling 

Identifying misspelled words, defining error patterns, and determining if the target word is a base word, derived, or inflected are all examples of spelling evaluation approaches. and determining the level of phonological awareness of the student.

Mathematics 

Give entry slips/entrance tickets, evaluate assignments from the previous session out loud and in front of the entire class, and ask brief review questions as some approaches to assess your math pupils.
