Hi everyone,
My question is in regards to reading scores and french immersion students. Obviously the test is in english, but he has been in French since Kindie, so they expect his english reading to be behind a bit because they haven't officially been taught much in the way of english pronunciations etc
I will know more when i have the results but was just curious if anyone had encountered this before and how the psychologist qualified it in their reports?
My son is in French Immersion and was assessed by a private psychologist, and it was mentioned briefly in the report intro. I don't think any of the scores were scaled or adjusted in any way.
It was the least of my worries, actually... My son's assessment was kind of a write off anyway. He was seven and his behavior really interfered with the results. The doc said she could get only :45 (per each two hour session) of compliance out of him due to attention/hyperactivity problems. She actually wrote in the report that it was not reflective of his true cognitive profile and that we should test him again in two years.
Anyway, I know that doesn't exactly answer your question... but I'd still take your son's results with a grain of salt.
