Pre-test and Post-test Results from Achievement Series tests

This was an achievement series in math that was given in the fall and the end of the school year. Although there's evidence of 16% improvement, I would have believed there was more gain. I believe there are several reasons for the gain not being larger. One reason is perhaps the students don't completely comprehend estimation in all situations. I also believe that I may have given the post test too late in the year - after a few students had shut down. I will continue to work on estimation strategies next year because I believe they are a real life skill.
