Children take the NNAT Level A for entry into gifted and talented programs at the kindergarten level. The NNAT Level A is designed to provide a nonverbal measure of general ability and reasoning skills. There is a total of 48 questions on the NNAT Level A for kindergarten entry.
In order to ensure confidence and optimal performance on the test, students should be familiarized with both the format and the content of the exam (try a free NNAT sample test). To help you prepare, TestPrep-Online offers specific NNAT practice packs including questions and guides designed to fit your child’s testing level.

Pattern Completion questions: The student is presented with a design in which a portion is missing. The student must choose from the answer choices the correct portion missing.
Reasoning by Analogy questions: These questions present boxes that contain geometric shapes. The top row has a certain relation. The student must choose a box from the answer choices that shares the same relation with the box on the bottom row.

At a young age, motivating children to study might be difficult. Children are asked to study many different subjects from a young age. Therefore, it is important to prepare your child in the best way, so he will know how to cope with future exams and tasks. Here are six tips that will help your child get ready for the test:
To help your child's preparation process Testprep-Online made a package suited to the Level A NNAT Test.
Children can use our website in a simple and interactive way. They can learn and prepare for their test and access questions and explanations anytime, anywhere!
Our package includes a study guide for kids and a parent manual in addition to three full-length practice tests. Moreover, practice questions are available to practice each and every type of question. Our premium package includes a Video Academy. In each video, your child can learn how to solve different kinds of questions. After they are done taking the sample tests, your child can start the full-length test simulation.
After solving a test, you can see which answers were incorrect and review them. That way your child can see their weaknesses and learn how to solve the questions. Each question has a complete solution, so if they got one wrong they can understand their mistake, learn from it, and try again.
Do not forget that your child can retake all the tests and practice questions as many times as necessary. In addition, they can revisit the questions that were more challenging and test their understanding of the solution, making sure they would be ready for the day of the test.
