Hi all -
I got score results for DD 10, 4th grade today. I"m so pleased at her progress. Nearly 2 years ago she was diagnosed with reading issues - basically stealth dyslexia, though the school kept telling us she was fine. She took EXPLORE last year but for a variety of reasons we did not request extended time.
This year we did EXPLORE again, but with the extended time - and she did SO much better!
Test: 2014 score (2013 score)
Composite: 18 (13)
English: 19 (13)
Math: 16 (13)
Reading: 17 (11)
Science: 18 (14)
Some of course just could be her own growth - but I really think that this points to the value to her of extended time. Last year she said she only got through about 1/2 of the questions on each section. It was the first time we'd requested extended time for any testing - but I definitely will consider it for the future!
I think the NUMATS breakdown is not out yet for this year, yes?
Thanks - I know this is a bit of a brag - hope you don't mind. There are not many places I can be so happy about this. :-)
