Singapore Placement Test

I'm working on sorting out Maths at the moment.

Annie just took the Singapore placement test and scored 72%, on 1A so I'm more than happy.

Tom on the other hand was in a grumpy mood, I thought I'd make it easy on him and a booster in confidence and gave him 2A, he should be doing about 4A. He scored 54% and missed chunks out that I know he can do.

After marking it, along with tears and wails (that's just me) he sulked for a while, after I told him, if he had to go back school they would drop him down a class or 3 (I know, bad mother)*rolls eyes*

He then asked if he could do another one, so I gave him 1B, needless to say he got 94%, the mistakes he made were minor as well.

This then did boost his confidence and now he's asking for more, but I'm going to hold off.

The placement tests have told me what I needed to know.
