It is only here that I can share this smile
Ds(5), who is accelerated into gr 1, was formally tested by the school for reading after pointing out that the "readers" were far to easy and bringing in a book he had read that day at home. The gifted co-ordinator told me yesterday that his reading age came out at 13 (Neale analysis). His teacher has been great and suddenly we have appropriate books now and I think a new appreciation for the quietish student in his class (whose parents are not crazy after all) smile
