I have a 5 year old that is currently enrolled in the Waldorf School. We are trying to figure out if this is the best spot for him as he has been assessed with low scores on MVPT-3 (less than 1%). At the same time, he completed the KABC II & the Woodcock Johnson Test of Achievement III and seemed to do well although I can't find any comparative scores for a child his age. Here's what we have:
MPI: 111
FCI: 121
Sequential Index: 115
Simulatneous Index: 94
Learning Index: 120
Knowledge Index: 141
Woodcock Johnson
Letter-Word Identification: 168
Reading Fluency: no score due to age
Story Recall: 112
Understanding Directions: 119
Calculation: no score due to age
Math Fluency: no score due to age
Spelling: 106
Writing Fluency: no score due to age
Passage Comprehension: 142
Applied Problems: 118
Writing Samples: 121
He's had no academic instruction at this point. We'd like to make sure we have him in an environment that will close the gaps between his strong and weak points.
Any suggestions on how to interpret the results and any experience with Waldorf vs. more traditional education options?
Thanks!
