OH I'd love to look at your blog. What standardized test did you use?
My blog is
here. I am not a great blogger, but I have written a little about how school works here.
I have used the California Achievement test. I like it because homeschooling moms are authorized by the test to give it. (So I can give it at home and it still meets the requirements of my state.) My sister has used it, and told me about it. I don't think that it is the best test out there, but it works for us. I used an out of level test for my oldest this year, and at least she didn't get a perfect score on any of the subtests. (She did score 99% on several of them though.)
We have not had a formal assesment done on any of our dds yet. Since we are planning to continue to homeschool, there doesn't seem to be any benefit. Maybe when they gets older it will be necessary, but for now we will just keep on trying to keep them learning. (Not as easy as it sounds. They knows so much, that it is easy for everything to just be review instead of real learning.)
