Thank you for starting this thread! It is timely for us too...
Just got the scores back from the WISC and he qualifies, but we didn't do comprehensive achievement testing, so I am submitting a portfolio....
My son is 6 yo, and I'm struggling who to choose for a nominator. He has a former sitter who has watched his development from birth. She is an advocate for people with disabilities and knowledgeable about IQ scores, normal development, etc. But she's not a teacher. Really hoping it is ok to use her as a nominator because she GETS it!!
