Test Administration
Kindergarten MODEL is an individually administered, adaptive assessment designed to take approximately 45 minutes or less per student. Students are presented only with questions that the test administrator, based on the student’s response to questions in the previous level, has a reasonable expectation that the student will be able to understand and respond to.
Kindergarten MODEL test kits contain all materials necessary to train test administrators and to deliver the assessment.
Scoring
Test administrators use the WIDA MODEL Score Calculator to calculate students’ scores and generate score reports for Kindergarten MODEL.
