  2. What is it really? • The Meitzav is a National Test • Developed by RAMA • Reflecting : • the Curriculum and the Standards • knowledge acquisition • thinking processes

  3. The Meitzav An Achievement Test The Abbreviation: To heighten the responsibility and accountability of teachers and their schools regarding the achievements of their students in the following domains: Access to Information from spoken and written texts Presentation in writing : Objective: information Subjective: ideas מיצ"ב:מדדי יעילות וצמיחה בית ספרית הערכה מסכמת, "הערכה של למידה" :הש"ל The Purpose:

  4. The Meitzav assesses student proficiency of skills in the following domains: • Access to written and oral Information • Presentation of information and personal responses

  5. How can we prepare for it? • Diagnostic Testing: Administering an initial and a post test 2. Dynamic Mapping: Follow up - a continuous tracking of change and development by domains over time

  6. Meitzav Folder: • The initial mapping • Intervention plans on a classroom level following the mapping • Intervention plans on a Partani level • Dynamic Mapping – tracking of individual differences over time • Dates of unit exams, practice Meitzav exams, and a pre-meitzav exam

  7. Backward Design Begin with the end in mind and map out the steps to get you there: • Identify Learning Goals: • What do you want students to know? • What do you want students to be able to do? • Why is this difficult for them to know\ do on their own? • Determine acceptable evidence: • How will you know that they got there? • How will you assess that they got there? • How can we help students learn what is needed to be successful?

  8. A good plan is like a road map: it shows the final destination and usually the best way to get there.
