[quote=Anonymous]For your kids maybe it's easy, but not for all. I love the idea posted above about having the tests more as a measuring stick to gauge further instruction verses determining ranking by having the testing in December. Seems like a win win solution. Those that need extra help would hopefully get it in smaller group instruction and others could move on to learning new things. Seems like a similar thing is done with the DRA testing. The test is given in the fall and the spring to monitor progress and determine curriculum adjustments. I realize that many people against testing may not be for this additional test, however I think in the long run less emphasis would be placed on the test and would reduce anxiety among children since they would have already had the test once before. Do they even have two similar tests available to administer though in one year or could the same test be given twice just for those that didn't pass?[/quote]
