All three instruments provide both standard and percentile scores that can be shared with appropriate school personnel, to assist with placement decisions. The Wechsler Individual Achievement Test, 3rd Edition (WIAT-III), also by Pearson, and the Academic Achievement Battery (AAB), published by Psychological Assessment Resources in 2014, are both comprehensive, norm-referenced, individual tests of reading, math, and writing achievement. The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, 5th Edition (WISC-V), published by Pearson in 2014, is designed for use with children ages 6-16, and is the more up-to-date testing instrument for estimating intellectual potential available. While some students can qualify based on assessments offered at school, others require independent evaluation. The Oregon Administrative Rules state that students who score at or above the 97th percentile on appropriate tests should qualify for placement in TAG programs. Standardized testing is used to help demonstrate a student's ability to profit from TAG programs offered by local school districts. A number of school districts have special "TAG" programs for students who are "talented" (that is, unusually strong in one or more academic or other significant skill areas) and/or "gifted," or highly capable in the verbal, logical, and other ability domains that are most central to school achievement. Schools must serve children and adolescents of all levels of ability and skill, and it is often difficult to supply enough variety, challenge, and enrichment for unusually capable students in the context of a typical classroom. Many parents have these concerns and questions. does he need a more demanding educational program? Our school district just started a Talented & Gifted (TAG) program.
Math comes so easily to my daughter that her school work just doesn't challenge her.
