Either today or tomorrow, your student will be bringing home the results to their EOG pretest in reading. I want to offer a word or two about these results. The numbers may look deceptively low. Please understand that we still have several months of school. One of the main reasons we took this test was to identify students who are struggling before it is too late to work out any issues. Please be aware, I consider any score above 60% to be in range to pass at this time. Also, the EOG test consists of 58 questions in 5th grade, 8 of which are field test questions that do not count towards your child's results. The score they are coming home with includes those 8 questions. More than likely, some of those questions will be tossed.
Also, please be aware in order to score a "4", your student must answer 43 questions correctly out of 50. In order to earn a "3", your student must answer 32 or more questions correctly out of 50. Please look at the number of questions your student answered correctly for a better picture of the result. Please continue to work on the Competitive Edge books. They really help. And read, read, read!
Also, if 5th grade, collectively, makes 90% or higher on the EOG tests. I will, once again, wear the monkey suit. Have a great day.
