[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is this AAP, its selection, the arguments that follow so complicated? Why can't they categorize kids based on their report/grade cards every year and compartmentalize into separate classes? Maybe [b]add Cogat/NNAT kinds of questions as part of regular grading[/b]. Each year based on how the student performs, their class next year should change. That way nobody gets to be in the gifted or non-gifted bucket. [/quote] Those CogAT and NNAT questions aren't something they would encounter in school; they are to assess aptitude, not school achievement. They also have been designed to reduce the language component as much as possible so as to not disadvantage kid who don't read well in English. But the AAP packages do include iReady scores and report cards now. [/quote]
