Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment LOG - what would you call DD and DS?

I have several meetings with administration and teachers coming up at which my children will or may be discussed. Will you all help me to use the right terminology to describe them? Are they highly gifted? Just generally gifted with high giftedness in one area?

I don't want to 'overstate' what they are in any way, but also need to make it clear that their needs are not the same as a smart but non gifted high achiever (and I don't want to downplay them either, likewise a disservice). I'm pretty sure they get it, but just in case....

Here are their profiles -- what do you make of them, and what would you call them? Clearly I'm a little confused :-)

My DS10 was tested two years ago (2nd grade, 8 yo), my DD was just tested this year (2nd grade, 8 yo). Their scores are as follows:

WISC iv:
DS
VCI 158
PRI 115
WM 120
PSI 97
GAI: 148

DD
VCI 158
PRI 129
WM 123
PSI 103
GAI: 153
