[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are preparing our child for the NNAT in a way- but not much if at all - it's more introducing.  It's more explaining that a test happens- how to fill in the bubbles and basic test taking (which I think is applicable their entire life) - such as eliminate the ones that are not the ones, take your time etc.  We will not go beyond a few (free sample -- can find on interenet) test questions because I think it could turn my kid off on tests.  I don't think we are in that group of prepping kids?   We have spent 5 times of 2 minutes each (spread out) and we are done.[/quote]

So a child who couldn't figure that out himself/herself  or with only the teacher explaining needs to be in Advanced Academics?   Will you be with the kid in class?[/quote]

Well, a lot of the kids do seem to need tutors on a regular basis. When kids are prepped for a test that is supposed to be a reflection of how well and how quickly they can handle problems they have never seen before, the results simply are not reliable. After spending after school and weekend time prepping for the tests, they then need to spend after school and weekend time in extra classes and with tutors to keep up. It becomes a vicious cycle.
