It does not follow our Singapore Math Curriculum, though. • This test is not as helpful to administer to students who have not come through grammar stage classical education. Also, the lack of a GLE report makes it much more difficult to explain to the parents of those students. We sometimes find that the test is not an accurate account of the student's actual performance in the classroom giving the parents the idea that there are inconsistencies in reporting achievement. In addition, we are not finding the test matches our curriculum as nicely as we would like. • We test grades 2–10 every year. • We find that this test covers some, but not most, of the standards of our program. We are currently still evaluating its effectiveness. • We like the Fall Norm, but it is slightly more limited in reporting options, I believe. The Academy has used the Fall Norm in the past. For the 2016–17, we are moving to the Spring Norm. • We have been doing this test since November 2008. • We just started testing CTP-4 online last year. It was a bit of a learning curve and our test scores were not quite representative of where

Leslie Rayner and Dr. Christopher Perrin n this information age, it’s sometimes hard to know how to choose from the sea of options and resources that present themselves at every turn. When you are choosing what books your Ichildren will read, the stakes are especially high. That is why we have put years of research into The Classical Reader, collecting and analyzing the K–12 reading recommendations of classical educators from around the country, seeking those readings that have been important and pleasurable to generations of students. This pithy book includes recommendations for reading at each grade level, noting each selection’s level of difficulty and genre. The Classical Reader provides a way to keep a record of what your student has read and will also help you to plan future reading. This book is a valuable resource for every school and family for everything from book reports to reading for pleasure. The Classical Reader is a veritable cave of dragon loot, an embarrassment of riches that will provide years of instruction and delight and help to instill a lifelong love of reading.
