Instructions
First, have your child take the placement test that matches what you think your child’s grade level is. If your child scores 80% or more, that indicates he knows the material well and is ready to go on to the next level. But a score of less than 80% indicates that you may want to begin at that level.
Scenario A: Your child takes the placement test for Singapore Math 4A and scores an 85%. Because of his solid score, you move him up a level and have him take the 4B test. He then scores a 70%. This score indicates he doesn’t fully understand the 4B material so you decide to start your child at the 4B level.
Scenario B: Your child takes the placement test for Singapore Math 4A and scores an 30%. Because of his low score, you move him down a level and have him take the 3B test. This time he scores a 50%. His score is still relatively low, so you have him take the 3A test. He scores a 90%. Based on his low proficiency in 4A and his high proficiency in 3A, you decide to begin at the 3B level.
