p.s. her verbal/performance on WISC has huge gap and IQ and performance gap is too much of a descrepancy to consider acceptable. Similar to your DD's school, my DD's schools aim for attitude/motivation and seem to consider frustration to be more of an emotional disturbance and not based on the fact that she is dealing with these ridiculous gaps. I haven't strangled or screamed at anyone yet (though have become tearful at meetings unfortunately - it's hard to love my DD and have all these "professionals" be so dense about understanding these obvious gaps all her young, important years of early schooling so aggravating!!!!)
okay rant over...
