HI,
In the midst of finalizing my son's 504 (which is looking very much like an IEP). We insisted that he be given achievement tests to track whether the interventions he is getting are keeping him at his age/grade performance level.
In his neuropsychologist testing last May, he was given WJIII. The school psychologist (who has been on leave, not sure she has looked at the testing) is proposing that he be given WIAT II. I would think it better to stick with the same test, even though I recognize that he would be given a percentile ranking.
Would one generally expect that there would at least be no drop in the percentile rankings if he is continues to learn what he is supposed to learn in 4th grade (generally he was around the 50th percentile in broad rankings?)
Any views?
Thanks
Crhis
Thanks
Chris
