  Case: Math Pretest
Mrs. Granger gives a pretest before each math unit. What do you do if all students pass the pretest? Do you give the post test still?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Break the pretest down by specific skill and analyze what aspects of the standards students are missing. Then just teach them and posttest them on those skills. Add extra challengers and connection/extension problems. Make sure you are requiring them to APPLY the skill and not just perform it. For students who made a 100%, move on with them. There is already not enough time in the day...don't waste time on matter they don't need. This is where differentiation is key.
