Oooh! I like that, acs! Testing as a teachable moment!
I think it's key that you really discussed all the ins and outs of testing with him. That's very smart. I think most people tell the kid the score and that's it. Well, what does that number mean?
The way you contextualized it makes ALL the difference, I think. And in that case, why wouldn't you tell the kid the score? What possible reason would there be for holding back? I can't think of a single one! It's very sensible to give him that self-knowledge.
Good on ya'!
