hello, I am hoping someone out there can help decipher a score my daughter had on her ITBS testing at school. She is in third grade, although a young 8, she has an August birthday. Her usage and expression in language arts showed to be at an 8.9 grade level equivalent. Her other scores varied, from a little above grade level to several 5th grade GE. The usage and expression one was such a dramatic difference between her actual grade level and GE, so I am just trying to get some insight. She has not been IDed as gifted, in first grade she did not pass one creativity test (where the teacher fills out a form about the child, not really a test). Honestly as long as she is happy, does well in life, I am fine if she is not considered gifted. I figured maybe someone here could explain what the 8.9 test score means, if anything! TIA!
