The Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test, more commonly known as the FCAT, is a series of exams given to students of specific grade levels over the course of their public school career.  As Florida's public schools are guided by detailed “Sunshine State Standards” and benchmarks in all core realms of academia, the FCAT serves to critically measure students' retention and comprehension of the mandatory curriculum. 

For example, students are assessed depending on grade level on information from topics such as:

·         Grades 3 through 10 – FCAT evaluates reading skills and abilities

·         Grades 5, 8, and 10 – FCAT evaluates reading, mathematics, and science skills and abilities

·         Additionally, grades 4, 8, and 10 evaluate key content material in addition to writing skills

In more closely examining the FCAT, the assessment focuses on “Sunshine State Standards,” which have gradually been established to represent the key material that Florida residents believe their children must understand at each specific grade level. 

For example, the FCAT reading assessments evaluate the construction of meaning from informational and literary texts, while the FCAT mathematics assessments evaluate students' comprehension of the sense, concepts, and operations of numbers, while the math tests continue to gradually evaluate students' measurement, geometry, spatial sense, algebraic, and data analysis skills. 

The ITBS testing (Iowa Test of Basic Skills) is a comprehensive standardized assessment test which evaluates a student's level in all of the major subject areas including Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Science.

The TerraNova is a nationally-administered standardized assessment test similar to the ITBS (Iowa Test of Basic Skills) and the SAT-10 (Stanford Achievement Test, Version 10).  The overall purpose of the TerraNova is to provide achievement scores that are valid for most types of educational decision-making.  This gives teachers, parents, and tutors a better understanding of a student's educational strengths and weaknesses which can then be used to help differentiate the student's studies.

The TerraNova test includes questions in each of the 4 main subject areas: Reading / Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Science / History.  Scores in each of these subject areas are then compared as a percentile with other students in the same grade around the nation.  These percentile scores can be useful in judging overall performance of a student irrespective to difficulty level of the questions themselves.  For example, a 90% on a very easy test may not be that good of a score and only put a student at the 50th percentile, but a 90% on a difficult test may be good enough for a 98th percentile meaning that the student scored the same or better than 98% of his or her colleagues.

Since the scores on a test like the TerraNova can be instrumental in shaping a child's education it is very important for students to do well.  That is why we have created extensive practice materials through our www.BrightEducation.com website.

The new school year is upon us converting the latency of summer for millions of children back into the yearly grind of homework, essays, and book reports.  From year to year the material children cover can vary quite significantly: especially in Social Studies and Math.  While a child needs to use “mental floss” to get back in learning mode for reading, writing and mathematics after summer vacation, his intelligence quotient remains relatively constant throughout his life.

What is your child's IQ?

An excellent way to measure intelligence is to have your child take a certified intelligence test such as our ISIQ, Children's Version.  The ISIQ is a detailed intelligence exam that accurately calculates your child's intelligence taking into account age and numerous other factors.

The ISIQ is the new standard in measuring intelligence for children and it gives you accurate intelligence quotient results at a price hundreds of dollars less than psychologist administered intelligence tests.
