INKY. I am thinking of taking the scores to the division head; see what ideas they suggest. Then, I could also wait until the fall conference. I am afraid that they will say that she needs to have her math facts straight and fast before moving on further on that. I am on the fence about that, she does need to be faster on those (but she did get 97% on math fluency, I just don't know, maybe that was with smaller numbers?).
DAZED&CONFUSED. Certainly the age had something to do with it. I am positive that a year ago, she would not have done as well in writing or math in the achievement test. This year she leaped ahead a ton in both of those.
I was also expecting a big change in vocabulary. After all, she spends countless hours reading advanced books (part of her summer reading included 1st 3 HP, HObbit, Chronicles of Narnia...). So, yes, it was to be expected that 1.5 more years of schooling in English, plus the reading, would increase her vocabulary.
However, there was a marked difference in the Perceptual area as well, in the previous one, it was 97th.
She came out from both tests (separate days) super happy, when she did at 4, she did not. I asked her who she had liked better (I never thought of a non-direct way to ask before), and she said she'd liked the second one much better. Oh, and speaking of, she also had more fun with the achievement tahn IQ.
