[quote=Anonymous]^^ Sorry, hit send too quickly. The cut offs between the 1-5 scores are fairly arbitrary, so I would completely agree that a kid within 10 or even 20 points of a 4 is "almost" on grade level and should be taught grade level content. Similarly, a kid within 10 or 20 points of a 5 I would normally "round up" into the most advanced ELA or math group (i.e., in 3rd grade only 5ish% of DC is getting ELA 5s -- top 10% is actually closer to "kids who are good at ELA;" the percentage typically goes up in higher grades as kids get more familiar with test-taking). BUT 3 is SUCH a broad range that low 3s are actually struggling fairly substantially with grade-level material.[/quote]
