Is NNAT2 different from NNAT?

[Anonymous]

Is NNAT2 different from NNAT in terms of the format and questions? My daughter took the NNAT a few years ago and is in the GT program. My son is going to Gr.1 and it looks like the test is now called NNAT2. I am wondering if we can use the same material (that I need to fish out) or buy new material.

“How can I prepare my child for taking the NNAT and NNAT2?” The best way to prepare a child for the NNAT or NNAT2 is to be sure he or she is rested, feeling well, not hungry or thirsty, and not overly anxious. Taking the NNAT is fun for many children because the test is made up of diagrams not reading and math questions. Help your child understand that the best thing they can do is try their best. They should not spend too much time on any one question but not rush through the questions either. Encourage your daughter or son to look at all the answer options carefully before making a selection.

If you really want to familiarize your child with the format of the test, I suggest you buy the new NNAT2 books.
