[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have any recommendations for IAAT prep books? [/quote]

I never really found one that was any good.  My daughter went to a friend's house a few time to "study" for the Iowa and they were using google to figure out topics and find sample questions.  I found a prep book for her and the most useful part of it was to practice the timed aspect and get her used to the idea of "if you can't figure it out quickly, move on and come back to it."  The book questions were too advanced based on the sample questions I saw come home from her classroom and she told me none of that stuff was on the test. So I'd just stick to what they're doing in class and if you want to practice timing, google sample problems and make your own 15 question worksheet and time them at 10 minutes so they get a feel for how to manage the clock.

FWIW, she eeked out a pass advanced on her math SOL and got 96%ile for her IOWA and is doing fine so far in Algebra.  But as a parent with a math background, I knew she would because she has good number sense and understands math with minimal effort. My bigger concern is for how challenging the work will get after Algebra 2.  But she *really* wanted to take Algebra is a 7th grader so I let her make the final decision after we made a pro/con list and gathered feedback from teachers/counselors.[/quote]
