Assessment Description
Curriculum Based Measurement math is a standardized assessment that
is administered to students whole-group. Students are given two to
five minutes to solve basic mathematics problems in addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division. Digits in the answer that
appear in the correct place are scored as correct digits and the
total added to become the student's raw score. This raw score is
entered on a
chart,
Pocket CBM, or online program such as
Dibels or
AIMSweb.

CBM math can be administered as a benchmark passage four times a
year or weekly to chart numerical growth progress. It is appropriate
for any grade level, but used most frequently in elementary schools.
