Dear Parent;

Thank you for your question.

A testing system is built into each level of the Language of God series; however, the test pages are labeled as review or practice pages.  

In a public school setting, classroom teachers have difficulty tracking individual, daily progress because of the sheer volume of work produced by 30 students.  Testing, therefore, is necessary to shed more light on individual performance.

In a homeschool setting, testing doesn’t generally reveal further information on student progress than the teacher already knows; the teacher is intimately and immediately aware, on a daily basis, of her child’s understanding of the material. 

In any case, in the Language of God series these review, or test, pages occur about every 12 to 15 pages, and may be used for review, practice, and testing.  Some like to use the pages as practice exercises, but then return to the same pages and use them as tests a week or two later.  [If the workbook page has been used, the test may be given orally.]

May our good Jesus bless and guide your homeschooling days!
