Thank you aeh. Your post is very helpful. I'm not sure about her reading abilities. I always thought she was a great reader, but she doesn't love to read like I think she should. She would much rather play Minecraft or make things out of paper. I will keep what you said in mind and try to figure out if it's just a lack of being sufficiently challenged or a hidden disability. What should I do if it's a disability? I hardly think her school would be willing to offer her any services in that area considering that she is one of the better readers in her class. If I get outside help for her, what kind of professional would I be looking for?
And thanks for your last side note. It can be easy to miss the forest for the trees. She's a great kid with so many talents in and out of the classroom.
