Year 3 has had a busy start to the year with the administration of the AGAT assessment (ACER General Ability Test). This is an assessment of general reasoning ability in the skill areas of Verbal, Numerical, and Abstract (Visual).  Verbal reasoning skills concern the discriminating and accurate use of words and the ability to reason with words. Numerical reasoning skills concern the discriminating and accurate application of mathematical processes to solve problems. Abstract or visual reasoning skills concern the identification of patterns and rules in collections of geometric images and shapes. 

Teachers will use these results to supplement their programming.
