  <title>Standardized test results</title>
  <link>https://flea.dreamwidth.org/500131.html</link>
  <description>We got a letter with Casper&apos;s results on the CRCT last night.  There were three sections: math, reading, and language.  To meet the standard you had to get an 800; 850 or more is considered exceeding the standard.  Casper got a 825 in reading, so solidly middle of the standard.  She got an 846 in language, near the top of the standard, and an 851 in math, just exceeding the standard.  I&apos;m interested by these results in that they do seem to track very closely to what I observe of her abilities in these three areas.  So maybe the CRCT is about to accurately assess some kids, anyway.  I am pretty sure they are dropping it for 1st and 2nd graders next year, as a cost-cutting measure, and I can&apos;t say I&apos;m sorry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We had a really hard night with Casper last night - devolving into asking to come to work with me today (promising to be really good!). And then we had a hard morning with Dillo this morning.  Both kids are tired.  I hope like heck we can get them to sleep in this weekend, since we are so spectacularly failing to get them to bed at a reasonable hour.  Oh, the woes of June in our latitude, when it&apos;s light from before 6am to nearly 9pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=flea&amp;ditemid=500131&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>
