DragonFaerie Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I just bought Wordly Wise 3000 (2nd ed) for my daughter but I'm wondering about the test book. I do give vocabulary tests and I'd love to not have to make up my own. Can someone tell me what the tests in the book are like? What types of questions to they give? How many questions are on each test? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beach Mom Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I happen to have the Book 3 Test Booklet sitting on my desk next to me at the moment. Each lesson has an 18 question multiple choice test and there are cumulative tests every 5 lessons (in addition to the lesson test). The questions range from giving an example of the word in a sentence and asking the student to select to the correct meaning, to providing a group of examples and asking which one is not an example of the vocabulary word, to asking opposites. There is an answer key in the back. I use the tests to help ensure some level of retention and for some test taking practice. I have another child using Book 5 (which is not in front of me so my description is more general). Those tests are closer to 30 questions, still multiple choice and more complex kinds of questions. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonFaerie Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 Thank you! That's exactly what I needed to know. I looked at the sample page on RR but it only shows 5 questions. I just wanted to make sure the tests are more substantial than that and it sounds like they are. I also told DD about the website. She's excited to check it out.
