Math Assessments:
Assess & Address Essential Math Concepts
Support targeted, effective math instruction and interventions that span basic facts to multi-step computation and higher-order applied mathematics using actionable data from our suite of math assessments.
FastBridge math assessments combine research-based Computer Adaptive Tests (CAT) for universal screening and highly sensitive Curriculum-Based Measures (CBM) for progress monitoring to quickly deliver accurate, actionable data. User-friendly reports help educators target the right math skills with the right instruction and move students toward math proficiency, faster.
earlyMath
Assesses early numeracy skills through early math assessment subtests that measure accuracy and automaticity.
Universal Screening & Progress Monitoring
Grades PreK-1
aMath
Measures broad math abilities and predicts overall math achievement in counting and cardinality; operations and algebraic thinking; number and operations in Base Ten; number and operations with fractions; measurement and data; and geometry.
Universal Screening
Grades K-12
CBMmath Automaticity
Measures a student’s fluency with arithmetic facts, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Universal Screening & Progress Monitoring
Grades 1-12
CBMmath Process
Measures a student’s applied math skills using a General Outcome Measure and single- and multi-skill sub-tests for each level of the elementary school math assessment.
Universal Screening & Progress Monitoring
Grades 2-6
CBMmath Concepts & Applications
Evaluates students’ skills for solving complex and multi-step math problems. It measures math concepts and applications, and includes items that cover skills from computation fact fluency to multi-step algebra problems.
Universal Screening & Progress Monitoring
Grades K-8

Learn how FastBridge helps students become proficient at math.
FastBridge offers teacher-led math interventions to help move struggling students closer to grade-level goals. Our scripted, class-wide and small-group lesson plans make it easier for educators to teach core numeracy skills by aligning directly to our diagnostic rmath assessments. Each skills-based intervention is backed by the research of Dr. Ted Christ and his colleagues at the University of Minnesota.
Number Sense
Proficiency includes the ability to recognize numerals and the quantities they represent and use the properties of smaller and bigger quantities.
Whole Number Operations
Proficiency includes the ability to accurately add, subtract, multiply, and divide automatically and fluently.
Algebra
Proficiency includes automaticity and fluency with using variables and formulas, evaluating and simplifying expressions, solving equations, and using algebra skills to address everyday problems.
Data Analysis, Statistics, Probability
Proficiency involves knowledge and use of measures of central tendency,
properties of distributions, data analysis, statistics, and probability skills to address everyday problems.
Measurement
Proficiency includes the ability to determine the size, length, or amount of something. Also includes automaticity and fluency using a variety of tools to calculate values for time, money, area and volume.
Rational Numbers
Proficiency includes any number that can be made from two integers. Proficiency includes automaticity and fluency using fractions, mixed numbers, ratios and decimals.
Geometry
Proficiency includes automaticity and fluency with calculating and using relationships among points, lines, surfaces, solids, and higher dimensional analogs.
General Math
Proficiency includes the ability for students to understand, recognize, and solve real-world problems at their instructional level
