About the WISC-IV

Haley was administered the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children Fourth Edition (WISC
IV) on 6/12/2003. The WISCIV is used to assess the general thinking and reasoning skills of
children aged 6 years to 16 years. This test has five main scores: Verbal Comprehension score,
Perceptual Reasoning score, Working Memory score, Processing Speed score, and Full Scale
score.

The Verbal Comprehension score indicates how well Haley did on tasks that required her to
listen to questions and give spoken answers to them. These tasks evaluate her skills in
understanding verbal information, thinking and reasoning with words, and expressing thoughts
as words.

The Perceptual Reasoning score indicates how well Haley did on tasks that required her to
examine and think about things such as designs and pictures, and to solve problems without
using words. These tasks evaluate her skills in solving nonverbal problems, sometimes using
eye-hand coordination, and working quickly and efficiently with visual information.

The Working Memory score indicates how well Haley did on tasks requiring her to learn and
retain information in memory while utilizing the learned information to complete a task. These
tasks measure her skills in attention, concentration, and mental reasoning. This skill is closely
related to learning and achievement.

The Processing Speed score indicates how well Haley did on tasks requiring her to quickly scan
symbols and make judgments about them. These tasks measure her skills in speed of mental
problem-solving, attention, and eye-hand coordination. This skill may be important to her
development in reading, and ability to think quickly in general.

The Full Scale score is derived from the combination of the Verbal Comprehension, Perceptual
Reasoning, Working Memory, and Processing Speed scores. The WISCIV Full Scale score is
one way to view Haleys overall thinking and reasoning skills.

About the WIAT-II

Haley was given the Wechsler Individual Achievement Test - Second Edition (WIAT-II) on
6/12/2003. The WIAT-II is an achievement test for individuals ages four through adulthood. The
skills tested are listed below:

Reading: Word Reading

Reading Comprehension
Pseudoword Decoding
Mathematics: Numerical Operations
Mathematics Reasoning
Written Language: Spelling
Written Expression
Oral Language: Listening Comprehension
Oral Expression

How WISC-IV and WIAT-II Scores are Reported

The scores show how well Haley performed compared to a group of children the same age from
across the United States. The highest possible score is 160 and the lowest possible score is 40
for most skills tested. Half of all children will score less than 100, and half of all children will
score more than 100. Scores from 90 to 109 are average.

A percentile rank is also given. This shows your childs rank in the national comparison group.
If the percentile rank were 45, for example, it would mean that she scored higher than
approximately 45 out of 100 children her age.

When reviewing Haleys scores, remember that no test is perfectly accurate. Any child might
score slightly higher or lower if tested again on a different day.

her age.

Your child may benefit from your support and encouragement in helping her improve her skills
in Reading. If you have not already done so, you may wish to speak with Emily Martinez
regarding a plan for assisting Haley in improving these ski

The WISCIV is a test of thinking and reasoning skills and the WIAT-II is a test of academic
achievement. A childs scores on these tests, however, can also be influenced by motivation,
attention, interests, and opportunities for learning. Please keep in mind that a few test scores
cannot assess all of the skills that Haley may be capable of using to assist her in achieving
success.
