Primary Maths Assessment Tool

The Primary Maths Assessment Tool is for teachers of Levels 1 to 4 Mathematics in the New Zealand Curriculum. It is designed to assess the intent of the mathematics curriculum by assessing students’ ability to use mathematics to solve problems. It uses carefully designed and sequenced questions to tease out and record each student’s level of understanding in maths against the Mathematics Learning Progressions and curriculum levels.

The data gathered will assist teachers to group students according to their learning needs and can be used for planning and developing appropriate maths programmes with ‘where next’ statements and links to learning opportunities in Maths Aotearoa.

Complementary to this assessment tool are Level 2, 3 and 4 Wilkie Way Assessment Screens for Mathematical Knowledge and Skills, also with ‘where next’ information and resource links to Maths Aotearoa and Wilkie Way.
