A one-on-one test for kindergarten that takes 1.5 hours PER CHILD?? Waste of time. It took K teachers out of the classroom far too long, and didn't give valuable information to teachers to compensate for the amount of time it took. It needs to be shortened to under 15 minutes per child. There's nothing wrong with the standards it is assessing, but the test needs to be streamlined. It was, however, VERY developmentally appropriate for children! Just far too time consuming. [/quote]
