    Re: Star test question with IEP students
    Posted by Jennifer on 9/02/08


    I sit by the student and have him/her read the test aloud to me. If
    the student is struggling and it is taking an extremely long amount
    of time to figure out a word, I choose the wrong answer for the
    student. It is not frustrating the student and I am not giving them
    a false positive score
