My kid scored in the 98th percentile on reading and vocabulary and the 99th on writing on the Iowa Standardized Tests. Her reading and writing are at 9th grade level.
This is not surprising given how much we talk. We went to the kids’ gym today, and we talked so much, my jaw almost fell off. And of course, when I talk, I use all of my normal professorial vocabulary, such as, “I admonished the lab worker for her unseemly conduct and implored her to abstain from such behavior henceforth.”
Forget 9th grade, I think she’d beat most of my college students in vocabulary skills.
