Misty Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I didn't see a placement test or anything at the website. How do you decide? I'm wanting to get it for my 8yo daughter, who has only completed up through level C in Right Start Math. She is highly gifted and is ready for a little more acceleration than what I can give her with RS, so I'm looking at CLE. Any thoughts on this are welcome too. Thanks!€ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TN Mama Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Here is the placement test and the teacher guide. CLE recently revamped their website and made these available for download. There are also samples of each light unit available. Best of luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TracyR Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 In order to properly place her with the CLE math be sure to have her take the diagnostic test :>) Other then that I do like thier math program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TN Mama Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Thank you so much, Laura! You're more than welcome. We just used CLE Math & LA 200 levels and really liked both. If you have any other questions - just ask away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brindee Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 How do you find those? I went to the CLE site and typed in Diagnostic Test, then placement test. Both times it said it couldn't be found. I'd want the higher level ones, since my dd is going into 7th grade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom2abcd Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Do you have to buy the placement tests? I clicked on the link for the sample, but my computer is saying I need a newer Adobe (which I have, but it isn't finding, I guess.) Maybe I'll just look at samples and guess.

titianmom Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 There are diagnostic tests right on the site. Go to: http://www.clp.org/store/by_course/139 The diagnostic tests should come up in pdf, I believe; just download and print. Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Adobe isn't working properly so we'll have to get that fixed before we can open the files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!€ My dd is older than yours and she also finished RS Level C. We did online placement test and she tested into CLE Level 400. My dd is not gifted so perhaps your dd will place higher than that. I purchased 306-308 inexpensively in order to give CLE a "trial run". DD says she hates it and wants to return to RS even though she is doing really well with CLE (1 wrong per lesson). She doesn't like change nor does she like that CLE lessons are 4 pages long (worksheets) when she is used to a one page worksheet in RS. CLE covers concepts that RS has not covered in Level C such as decimals, mixed fractions, measurement, etc.. I like CLE and think the computation practice, speed drills, etc. will help solidify my dd's math skills so I plan to do it through the summer then will re-evaluate in the fall.
