Long-term Test Prep Strategies

If you have a month or more to prepare for your child’s test, here are some strategies you can employ to prepare your child for their test.

Research the test
Knowledge is power. Ask the school or gifted program what test your child will take, how will it be administered and how often. Find out how the test is scored and what the scores will mean for your child. Will they be classified as gifted or accepted to their choice school? Will the test administrator make accommodations for a child with special needs? How will a low score in one area effect your child’s overall evaluation? What are the subjects and skills covered in the test?

Get organized
If you haven’t already, incorporate regularly scheduled practice sessions into your child’s homework schedule. Initially, practice doesn’t have to be daily just consistent, then gradually build frequency as test day approaches.

Assess then focus
Once you have practice materials, give your child a variety of practice exercises to assess their strengths and weaknesses. Then focus your efforts on the skills that your child finds most difficult.

Build test stamina
Many younger children may initially not have the attention span to complete even one skill area. Even older children may find it difficult to maintain focus for the full duration of an actual test. To address this issue, start in short practice sessions and build up the length of practice over time. For an older child, you may want to run a full-length practice of the test, to give him a feel for the test structure, the transition between skill sections and the duration of the test.

Avoid Burnout
Since you do have time to prepare, try to keep the stress level low. Establish an appealing workspace for homework and test prep. Do not cram; you have the benefit of time. Practice concepts in other forms like games or learning toys. Take a break from practice if needed.
Applying these concepts should help you and your child approach test day with confidence.

The Test Tutor provides resources and practices exercises to help familiarize your child with many commonly-tested skill areas.

Why You Should Have Your Child’s IQ Tested

Once you observed characteristics about your child that one might consider to be gifted the next step is the have him/her evaluated by a professional to help you determine and meet the academic and social needs of your child. Fortunately, virtually all states recognize giftedness and most states offer a varying range of resources to address the needs of gifted students. However, since the definition of giftedness also differs between states, the threshold for being identified as a gifted child can also differ.

So to avail yourself and your child of the gifted resources in your area, you will most likely be required to provide some sort of “proof” that your child is indeed gifted. Arguably the best way to clearly have your child identified as gifted would be to have them professionally evaluated or tested by a licensed and trained psychologist. Common tests used to evaluate a child’s intelligence quota (IQ) are the WISC, Stanford-Binet, WPPSII, and the Raven’s Matrices.

The accuracy and biases of IQ tests are highly debated, within education and psychology circles. But for the purpose of getting your chid accepted into the school or gifted program of your choice, IQ tests are one of the most widely-accepted tools that schools and psychologists have to evaluate student ability. Therefore, IQ tests are intended to measure an individual’s capacity to learn and assimilate information, not learned information as would it be in an achievement test.

Test Tutor Publishing provides concerned parents with information and practice exercises to acquaint their children with the types of skills that are included in a variety of IQ tests.

Tips for last minute test preparation

So the hard part is over, you’ve already reviewed the test concepts with your child and practiced many sample exercises. Now that the test is just a few days away, what can you do to further help your child prepare for the test?

1. First, and perhaps most importantly, keep the stress level regarding the test low. If your young child is anxious about the test, remind them that they are just going to do some brain games and puzzles like some that they have seen in the past. If it is an older child, encourage them by reminding them that the type of test questions will not be entirely new to them, just similar to some of the exercises that they have reviewed.

2. Second, do not cram. Ideally, practice under the same time limit that you have been doing throughout your prep work. However, if you are under a time crunch, focus on the skills and concepts that your child finds the most difficult.

3. Find out about the test setting and format. Find out how long the test will take and how it will be administered. If you have time, consider driving by the testing facility and acquaint your child with it. Even an older child might be helped by becoming familiar with many aspects of the testing format and environment before the test day.

4. Keep the same sleep schedule and eat a nutritious breakfast before the test.

5. Finally, on the day of the test reassure your child that he is prepared and can be confident about the test.
