Click here to view
the Waggle Placement Chart, which provides the RIT score ranges needed
for manual placement.
Students are automatically placed in Waggle Math or Waggle ELA based on their most recent MAP Growth scores (or HMH Growth Measure, if the district is using that assessment). Placement will be updated automatically as new test data are available. Classes without MAP Growth or HMH Growth Measure data will be automatically placed in Waggle by rostered grade level.
For Waggle, teachers must open the Placement screen in HMH Ed to launch automatic placement, which will be set to ON for all users by default.
