Scoring

Ms. Anderson,
I am working on a WIAT-II summary report on a little kindergarten boy who is age 5:2. The manual says I will not have composite scores for the Reading or Written Language sections also for certain subtests in these areas.
This leaves me looking at a summary sheet with a lot of blank boxes on the front page of the assessment record form.
Am I doing it right? What can I put down so I can convey to the reader that I have not overlooked that part of the scoring.
Is this clear as mud. I think my eyes just crossed looking back and forth between table pages trying to figure out what to do. LOL

  1. Hi Selma,

    You are correct. Several of you have asked me about the scoring for PK and K. The WIAT is not the best choice for this age range but it will do for our purposes. I want you to be able to see all different ages.

    You can put Xs or cross out the items that are not administered and write a note beside each one indicating the subtest was not used due to the student's age at the time of testing.

    Hope this helps!
