[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 19878, member: 23"] It's the TAKS "season." Every state has their own name for accountability testing. My son has always taken TAKS in small group also. TAKS testing has been helpful for us. We went round and round with-the school in the 2nd and 3rd grades about reading (one of many problems). My son's word attack skills, spelling, etc., were very good. He appeared to read at or above grade level. He was an A/B student. The trouble was that when he finished reading a story, he had little comprehension. My requests for intervention were ignored; I was deemed an "overly concerned" mother. They were totally shocked when he failed the 3rd grade reading TAKS. I couldn't help but to ask them, "Why?" It wasn't until then that difficult child began to get some reading intervention. difficult child is in the 7th grade now. I still get apprehensive. difficult child is taking the writing TAKS today. I'm biting my nails along with you. Good luck to your difficult child! [/QUOTE]
