Explain Everything™ What Is Curriculum-Based Measurement And What Does It Mean to My Child? by Kathleen McLane Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) is a method teachers use to find out how students are progressing in basic academic areas such as math, reading, writing, and spelling. CBM can be helpful to parents because it provides current, week-by-week information on the progress their children are making. When your child’s teacher uses CBM, he or she finds out how well your child is progressing in learning the content for the academic year. CBM also monitors the success of the instruction your child is receiving – if your child’s performance is not meeting expectations, the teacher then changes the way of teaching your child to try to find the type and amount of instruction your child needs to make sufficient progress toward meeting the academic goals. How Does CBM Work? When CBM is used, each child is tested briefly each week. After the scores are entered on the graphs, the teacher decides whether to continue instruction in the same way, or to change it. For More Information
