NNAT3 Level B · Put your knowledge to work in context.
NNAT3 Level B is the Grade 1 form of the Naglieri Nonverbal Ability Test, Third Edition, a reasoning test built entirely from shapes, symbols, and patterns. Because item content carries no reading, writing, or spoken language, it is often used to look at reasoning ability in children whose language or schooling background might otherwise mask it - including English learners, very young test-takers, and children being screened for gifted and talented programs. The NNAT3 Level B case studies are 5 cases and about 3,164 words.
