Its interesting to test yourself everynow and then and see if you can answer the type of questions that young American students get on standardized tests.
Its getting tougher then when you were a student. In fact, Carol Lee, a teacher with 25 plus years experiences challenges anyone to take the 4th grade English Language Arts and Mathematics to see if they are smarter than a 4th grader.
She doubts that the majority of even college-educated people will find this test easy. I looked at the exam, its a bit daunting, but its best to brush up on your long forgotten skills of synonyms, latin construction and reading comprehension before you get into a competition with a 4th grader.
If you're up for the challenge click on the following link to go though the 4th grade California Department of Education's English Language test.
