Hi all-
I posted last night in the 2E thread about DD8 - we just got WISC-IV and WJ-3 testing back. Psychologist says she is gifted, and has a reading disorder/disorder of written expression - her WJ-3 scores in these areas were 30-40 points below her WISC IQ. (And we've been concerned about this from things we've seen at home and school.)
I think her scores are not high enough to make extended norms relevant, but wanted some other input from folks who know more than I do. My DS11 is a DYS; I feel like DD8 would benefit even more than he has from DYS resources, but her GAI on the WISC-IV is 140, below the required 145. Psychologist thinks that in reality her IQ may be higher, but she is really struggling with reading and writing - something we plan to work on moving forward!
Her scores were:
Verbal Comprehension: 138
Similarities - 19
Vocab - 15
Comprehension - 13
Information - 15
Perceptual Reasoning: 129
Block Design 10
Picture concepts 16
Matrix Reasoning 14
Picture Completion 14
Working Memory 126
Digit Span 16
Letter-Number Sequencing 13
Processing Speed 115
Coding 12
Symbol Search 13
Thank you!!!!
Susan
