My 8 year old son has a WISC-IV GAI, using extended norms, of 152.
WE did the woodcock johnson a couple of days ago and he did 138 (99%) broad math, and 133 (99%) broad reading. I know those scores don't cut the mustard for the application so I have been scouring the board for portfolio ideas.
He has been in a brick and mortar school for 3rd grade, and as an august birthday he is still top of his class, which is not saying much. The other day I was going through his home school work a year ago, and he was doing things in math he hasn't even gotten to in regular school. It is frustrating.
I got a workbook of supposedly 6th grade work, and he did some sheets on reading comprehension, math, etc. But these seem awfully easy and I really can't tell if it is 6th grade or not. I also made a video of him talking about a favorite topic, but he was self-conscious and not sure his brilliance came through fully.
My question is:
SHould I turn in what we have including the sub-acceptance WJ achievement scores?
And portfolio, what is a great set of items for this age?
Any sage advice in general?
TIA
