Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

Suggested Response: IQ scores have been shown to predict success in school. The IQ scores give Mr. Solinski information about the number of students who are likely performing at grade level, above grade level, and below grade level. IQ scores tell him something about the range of academic skills among the students in his classroom.
This information can be used to benefit students with instruction that meets their learning needs. Are some of the students gifted and in need of extra challenges? Are some students struggling in one or more areas and in need of extra support? This information can also be used to determine whether ability group instruction is needed and the level of differentiation required for each student to succeed.
