Alright, there is one good thing about living in the most oppressive homeschooling state in the Union. We are required to give our kids standardized tests in third, fifth and eighth grades, and thus I have government-sanctioned bragging rights.
Secondo is finishing third grade this year, so this was her first year for testing. We use the Wide-Range Achievement Test (WRAT) which gives a grade + month ability level for the subjects of reading, spelling and math. Consider yourself warned. Mommy bragging commencing in....
Three...
Two...
One...
Math - Third grade, fifth month (Right on target. We were very happy with this considering we had her change curriculum half-way through the year.)
Spelling - Fourth grade, ninth month (Have I mentioned that we really like Spelling Workout?)
Reading - Ninth grade, 0 months (The tester had Secondo skim through the word list and pick out words she thought she could read, and she was able to read a smattering of words through college level! She is so proud of herself!)
Way to go, Secondo!
Now I need to comb through the bookshelves and find more difficult books for her to read. *grin*
