Explanation:
en lenguaje, ciencias, sociales, matématicas y lectura.

ITBS (Iowa Test of basic skills) appears to be a multidisciplinary test. I propose "sondea" in the sense of "collecting information on", or reúne (although it does not convince me) in the sense of "bringing together" diifferent fields of knowledge....

Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) -- An achievement test battery used to assess student progress in basic skills. There are 10 levels covering grades K-9. In 1999, all Washington public-school students in fourth and eighth grades took this test, which replaced the CTBS. Publisher: Riverside Publishing, a subsidiary of Houghton Mifflin.

*******
ITBS Iowa Test of Basic Skills. Published by the Riverside Publishing Company, this battery of tests for students in grades K-8 measures aptitude and ability in: listening , word analysis, vocabulary, reading, comprehension, language (spelling, capitalization, punctutation and usage),visual and reference materials, mathematics (concepts, problem solving and computation), social studies, science, writing and listening. This test was widely used by many states at various points (1st, 3rd, 5th and 8th grades for example) to track progress and compare results with others on a national basis. Today the ITBS is less widely used than in the past because many states are moving toward other means of evaluation.
