[quote=Anonymous][quote]What about the 4th grader who doesn't have an IEP, but can barely read or who can't add 1+1? Isn't that important to identify early on? [/quote] I think this student would have been identified way before a standardized test was given. If this did not happen, there is a REALLY big problem at that school and/or at home. The parent might be refusing testing for learning disabilities? I can't imagine that a teacher would not have been discussing this with parents already. I would love to hear about how many cases like this the standardized tests have identified and how the school or the feds used this information to intervene on behalf of that 4th grader. I would also like to know how many students are so jaded that they do not even read the tests and just mark any answer (which even I used to do as a kid because I knew these tests didn't really matter to me).
