转芹菜妈 小娃CogAT和ITBS考试攻略

我们学区考CogAT 和ITBS。CogAT包括verbal, quantitative和nonverbal。ITBS包括math 和reading。友情提醒,考试要按照高一年纪准备,比如我娃一年级,要做二年级的题。

准备前建议找点模拟题做一下,一是熟悉题型,二是找到知识薄弱点,重点突击。

ITBS:Test Best Itbs Grade 2, LVL 8 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0811428591/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

这里也有两套CogAT的题。http://www.mercerpublishing.com/cogat.html

 

先说ITBS  reading。听说很多孩子reading是短板,需要提前一年开始系统补习。拿不到90 percentile以上(才相当于错5道题),你其他考得再高也没用了。我娃reading还行,复习的重点放在补窟窿上了。比如我娃phonics不好,就用了下面的书补。

Spectrum Phonics, Grade 2 (McGraw-Hill Learning Materials Spectrum) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1561899429/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

这本也不错,对阅读理解很有帮助。

Nonfiction Reading Comprehension: Social Studies, Grades 2-3 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1420680234/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

再说数学,包括ITBS的math和CogAT的quantitative/nonverbal。我娃数学不太好,所以用了下面的书做了系统的复习。这书非常好,感觉我娃的数学能力,逻辑能力和图形能力都有了很大的提高。

Mathematical Reasoning Supplement - Grades 2-4 http://www.rainbowresource.com/product/Mathematical+Reasoning+Supplement+-+Grades+2-4/051051/f76d48eb29a14efbea45277a?subject=10&category=8655

对CogAT来说,Analogy很重要,基本贯穿了整个CogAT的三个部分,有verbal analogy (verbal), math analogy (quantitative), and figure analogy (nonverbal)。下面这本书很有帮助。

Analogies for Beginners http://www.amazon.com/Analogies-Beginners-Dianne-Draze/dp/1593630468/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1395987303&sr=1-2&keywords=beginning+analogies

还有这本书也不错,对CogAT  nonverbal部分很有帮助。

Building Thinking Skills (level 1) http://www.amazon.com/Building-Thinking-Skills%C2%AE-Level-1/dp/1601441495/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1396025449&sr=1-1&keywords=Building+Thinking+Skills

再有就是多做题了,testing mom里的题还挺多的。http://www.testingmom.com/
