Assessment

I scheduled a free diagnostic testing sessions with K.  I was glad we were able to get her in before Thanksgiving so hopefully we could get some answers and try to meet with her teacher again after the break.

I drove her the 30 minutes to the center and met with the director, Dr. W.  He was a nice man, and very friendly to myself and K. He explained that the testing would take an hour and a half and that I would be able to see K through the window in the room.

So I filled out a form rating what things I thought K struggled with and areas of concern.
Some of my concerns included:
Some reading and writing struggles
Falling behind in Math
Homework issues
Slow to catch-on to new concepts and takes too long to complete assignments
Not reaching her potential

I also read a couple of the brochures Dr. W had given me.

K did great and we even smiling when she came out an hour and a half later.  Dr. W told K she was really smart and she needed to promise him that she would go to college.

I was happy to have the testing done and to have someone acknowledge what a happy, polite, and smart girl K was.
We set up an appointment for the Wednesday before Thanksgiving to go over the results.
