Oh boy! Well, that could certainly mess a kid up! Did your child tell the teacher what she called each picture (pine vs. tree). I would think they should give credit for that! YIKES! Most teachers and professionals don't put much stock into the 1st grade CogAT for the very reason that it is read to them. In 3rd grade, they start reading it themselves. Usually they take it every other year, so you should be safe. Hopefully your school uses another measure for acceptance into a GT program if that is a concern for you.
