[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder if prepping is really going to help very much. I have my doubts. I am not against it but wonder if prepping will raise the score very much. I can understand going over the format of the test, but just don't know if practicing it is in reality going to help enough.[/quote] These people on these boards make it sound like these 2nd graders are taking practice tests day in and day out like a junior in college prepping for their SATs. I think the responsible thing to do is to familiarize the child with the test. We just moved from NYC. We had friends who just finished with the testing for 4 year olds for kindergarten placement. My friend bought a set of books and did one round of workbooks with her 4 year old. I hardly would consider this overkill. It isn't like the 4 year old is memorizing a question bank. Zero preparation seems irresponsible, especially if all the involved parents are exposing their kids to the tests.[/quote]
