Hi,

My 13 year old daughter & I are new to unschooling. As I was reading
through information the school has sent me, it states that at the end
of the year a test muct be administered to see the childs progress. It
does state I get to choose from: Iowa test of basic skills; California
Achievement test; Stanford achievement test; Metropolitan Achievement
Test or a state Education Department test. I was wondering if there
are any practice tests she could take for she is getting very nervous
that June is coming so quickly. I tried googling them put it only
explains what they are.

Does anyone have any suggestions or any related material in passing one
of these test?

Thanks!!!

It depends on your state. In Hawaii it seemed that they required
periodic testing but at the very end of the law it stated that a
portfolio or other statement showing progress could be presented.
Read the actual state law before you do anything.
