This is just a thought. When my DS was in 1st grade, his teacher kept telling me what a poor writer he was. Granted, it has never (and still isn't) his thing. Finally, at the end of the year when I insisted on a meeting to plan for 2nd grade, the teacher finally gave us some insight on the writing. "Well", she said, "If I ask him to write four sentences, that's what he writes. Everyone knows that if a child is gifted, he'll write more than what is required." Huh? She never told him she expected more. He was following her directions. Just to say that what this teacher is expecting might be different than what others expect so you might want to ask her to clarify what part of writing is not up to par. Hope that makes sense.

Sounds like a very productive meeting, otherwise.
