Hi Everyone,
My 5th grade daughter has shown interest in going into a gifted program for next year and we had her tested and the SCAT results were a bit odd. Quantitative came back as 99 percentile and verbal came back at 64. She has been accepted into the program. Is the lower verbal anything to be concerned about?
I'm very much a parent who lets my child do her own thing and I could tell that verbal wasn't a strong area especially after speaking with another child who had been tested for the program and that child has strong, complex sentence structure, so is it better for my child to work on verbal or let her go with what works for her since each child tends to have their own talents?
She's what I would say is a high-achiever and would work on verbal if I suggested, however, I don't want to ruin her interest in reading or burst a bubble by pushing vocab on her.
Thoughts?
Thank you.
