[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who works with elementary school kids, some kids do not pass the SOL because of testing issues rather than reading issues. For that reason, you cannot assume your child has an inadequate reading level just because they failed the test. The reading SOLs can be hard for some kids to tolerate, to sustain the effort all the way through, and some kids just do not "get" testing skills (such as eliminating less likely answers in favor of more likely answers, when it is not a clear choice) so I would say that a score just below (or just above) passing does not always indicate what you think it does.[/quote]+1 Plus, kids in elementary school often lack patience. They do not go back into the text to find the right answer. Rather, they just guess to keep moving on to the end. Lots of kids lack focus and can’t read one passage after another after another. They just guess to hop through. [/quote]
