Update from me...
Well, today at gym, DD was pulled aside and put through what looked like an assessment of sorts. She had to hang in an L on the bars, and a tuck, and pull her chin up to the bars. Then, they made her sit and touch her toes, and then do what she calls a "straddle pancake" (sit in straddle, chest flat to the floor). She did all this easily, except struggled with the chin-up. I have seen her do one before, but she's just getting over a cold, so maybe was just not up to full strength today.
Then, for the rest of the class, they were getting her to do things the other kids weren't doing - like walking backwards on high beam up on her toes (and once while rolling a hoop!), "walking" on her hands while she did a handstand against the wall (she managed 10 steps on her hands), doing a proper run-up to the springboard and a straight jump off, and doing a cartwheel on the flat floor rather than over the block. I heard a few "wows" coming from the coaches, so she must have done okay lol...
Anyway, I'm not sure if that was her formal assessment or not, or if she passed what they were looking for. But it gave me a proud mama moment, and it made her feel proud of herself, which was the best part of all
