master of none - thank you! as for the scribing, thankfully for these little kids it's just a matter of filling the circle and that's all they need to do so what I did was wait for him to show me the circle and I filled it in. He did do quite a few of them himself but it was all kinds of scribbles and nothing that would resemble a filled in circle, which is why I stepped in and we finished it with him showing me the answers. He spent only 1 complete trimester in public K at which point we pulled him out. He seemed to had been struggling in areas such as writing and reading and was too far ahead and really bored in Math and during some other activities so he spent those couple hours at school either angry because his hands weren't up to the writing or waiting on others to get the basic math concepts. Seeing the scores makes me even more glad we pulled him out for now. His reading is now way better than just couple weeks ago and he's no longer frustrated with it because we're going at his speed and concentrating on what he needs and jumping over things that we find pointless.
We do want to put him back into public school sometime by 2nd or 3rd grade mainly because he's very social, which is why I even bothered with the testing in the first place. But seeing how hard it is for him to actually go through the testing, when we're ready for him to go back, we'll probably use private 2E tester rather than rely on school. He has really bad sensory processing issues (the main OT where we go for therapy said she has only seen very few kids that had it this bad), though we've been seeing a lot of improvements the last couple of months, and the school never even tried to accommodate for it and always blamed it on "immaturity" and "behavior issues". So if / when he goes back to public school, the first thing will be asking for in his IEP will be specific accommodations rather than what we were told previously ... "we'll address any issues if they arise"
Overall, seeing the scores, I do think that an actual objective professional testing might be needed in the future to make sure he's getting what he needs.
