VB-MAPP Training Materials

Chalkboard
The VB-MAPP is a very helpful tool in providing a student's educational program with a comprehensive sense of direction.  But, of course, to use it you have to know how it works.

Here are three handouts that I've created to help in explaining the purpose and use of the assessment that I hope might be helpful for you.  Each includes a related presentation.



Overview

This handout was designed to help establish a framework for understanding the VB-MAPP assessment as well as to provide an overview of the assessment so that the you can gain a better understanding of its value as an educational tool.

This handout was designed to act as a reference sheet as you complete the VB-MAPP assessment.  It includes reminders on how to fill out the protocol and some tips for administration.


Interpretation
handout   presentation

This handout was designed to act as a reference sheet as you interpret the results of a completed VB-MAPP profile.  It contains helpful tips for what to look for on each scoring form, as well as advice on how to select IEP goals based on the information in each scoring form.  Additionally, this handout contains suggestions on making placements decisions based on the information included in the VB-MAPP scoring forms.
