MAP to Khan Academy: Khan Academy Practice Exercises Correlated to RIT for Common Core Math MAP Grades 6+ About this Document This document correlates MAP® sub-goals and RIT ranges to Khan Academy® exercises. The Khan exercises are interactive problems for students with instant feedback: Having these exercises correlated to RIT ranges means you can use them in conjunction with your flexible student groupings that are also informed by RIT score results. The exercises are also useful for targeting learning in each student’s zone of proximal development (Vygotsky). The correlation between MAP RIT scores and the Khan Academy exercises was determined by using our 2011 norms data to approximate grade levels, which were then matched to the corresponding Common Core State Standards (CCSS). Teachers in states that have not adopted the CCSS may still find these resources valuable by relating goals or sub-goals that are similar to CCSS goals and sub- goals. NWEA plans to work with Khan Academy to update these links twice a year as new exercises are developed. How to Use

a. Consider both the name of the exercise and the CCSS standard. b. Click the link and try the exercise yourself. Note: When you’re in Khan Academy, the links to videos and other resources add context to the actual exercise but are not necessarily correlated to MAP.
