M-STEP Math Practice
Michigan Student Test of Educational Progress. M-STEP is built on standards derived from Common Core. Briveli's CC-aligned curriculum covers the same skills.
Spring (April-May)
Computer-based
No calculator in grades 3-5 math. Grades 6-8 allow an embedded online calculator on the calculator-permitted section only.
Four performance levels: Not Proficient, Partially Proficient, Proficient, Advanced
About the M-STEP
M-STEP is Michigan's summative assessment for grades 3 through 8 in math, ELA, science, and social studies. It is built by the Michigan Office of Educational Assessment and Accountability and delivered online through eDIRECT and the INSIGHT testing engine. Math items align to the Michigan K-12 Standards for Mathematics, which were adopted from CCSS-M in 2010 and remain in force, although Michigan rebrands them as state standards. Each grade has two math sections plus an embedded field-test segment.
Item types include multiple choice, multi-select, equation editor, drag-and-drop, and short constructed response. M-STEP is not adaptive; every student at a grade sees a fixed-form assessment built to the published blueprint. The state reports four performance levels, with Proficient as the ESSA target. Briveli practice for Michigan emphasizes the same domain weights the OEAA blueprint highlights: fraction operations and place value in grades 3-5, ratios and expressions in grades 6-7, and linear functions and geometry in grade 8.
