[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I did not say prep your child by putting them in kumon or paying for some ERB prep class. I just said that since the "practice" ERB is taken in 2nd grade, it is best not to be in "la la land" . [b]I would suggest, reading instead of TV and video games and one of the on line math websites, but have it your way[/b]. Perhaps you are at a k-12 school and the only place your child's ERB's will show up is in their file and as a tool for class placement , math and reading group placement. If a child is having learning difficulties, the ERB scores become part of their SST. However, many people on this forum have children in a K-3 or k-6 school, so they should be aware. Take the advice or not. For us the process is over. [/quote]

How is your recommended prep different from kumon or some ERB prep class .... [b]"prep with reading or online math"?  [/b]What is the difference and does it matter how you do it, if you just do it (upscale fancy tutor or low scale on the cheap)?  Are you trying to assign value judgement on how kids prep?[/quote]

I guess what she meant is don't take it lightly and notifying us that there is such a thing as ERB where the school will look at and weight on in their admission process.  Whether it is be Kumon, ER prep class or reading in place of TV, online math game,  is a personal choice (budget & believe), just like private school and public school.  Of course Kumon mauth & ERB prep class will be more costly and also more intense.[/quote]
