Ruby,
I've been following my DD's MAP scores and growth using the Norm data. Using above level data has helped me determine her growth.
For example, I've tracked her reading scores for grade level, +1 grade level, +2 grade level and +3 grade level. I've seen she's moving up the percentiles for the above grade level math and reading and it helps me feel confident she's growing.
Here is the link for the Norms data. If you go to page 142-143, there is Mid School Year Math conversions. Your DD's score put her at 99% for 2nd grade, 99% for 3rd grade, 94% for 4th grade and 78% for 5th grade.
Do you have her past MAP scores so you can see if she's been steadily moving up the above grade level percentiles? Hope this helps.
