Test Results

Well, we took Kiddo's end of the year test in yesterday to be graded and I am PROUD to say, his overall composite score was. . . . . .(drum roll please). . . . . . 89.

WOO HOO! WAY TO GO, KIDDO!
You did a GREAT JOB!


He scored average in one section of L/A and one in Math, but the rest of his L/A and Math he scored above average in. Oh, and I also found out that they do use the same test for grades 9 & 10, (that's why it was familiar to us) and then the same test for grades 11 & 12. I'm not sure I agree with that, but what can ya do?

Now it's time to get things in order for this coming school year. I have been looking and I'm not sure what we'll use. We've been using an eclectic mix and have tried different methods. Just not sure which we like better yet. Oh, well....we'll keep looking.

Testing

"Lord, help me to remember You are everything I need. Show me again how to claim Your strength to homeschool and sense Your encouragement every day. In the name of Jesus, Amen!"

Today we are finishing up our end of year testing. (I know, I have procrastinated - see post HERE) Our "Proof of Progress" testing has to be submitted by August 1st and our NOI (Notice of Intent) by August 15th, to that will be done next week.

While we have been testing, both Kiddo and I noticed something. At first I thought maybe a question or two was the same, which is common, but when we got to the comprehension part of the L/A section, we both went....THIS IS THE SAME TEST! So I went back to my order sheet to check, and I indeed do have the 10th grade test which is level 19. What I am wondering now is if last year we received the wrong test. I will definitely find out tomorrow when I take his test to be graded. If by some chance we do have the wrong one, we will have tomorrow afternoon and Friday morning to complete a new one. Pray that we do have the RIGHT ONE!

I have also been looking for a curriculum for 11th grade. I'm not sure what I am going to use yet. There are so many different styles and curriculum to choose from that it boggles my mind. I am praying that God will give me wisdom and guide me in the right direction we should go.

Well, off to transpose his answers and fill in aaaaaalllllll those little bubbles! lol
