I have a 3rd grader whose IQ is 135. I find her younger sister to be similar in almost all aspects. However, the younger kiddo has lower math skills at this age. Both were early readers, etc.
DD2 just took KBIT at age 5y2m. She scored 119 verbal, but only 97 nonverbal. My first thought was that it's just flat wrong. I'm a teacher with a master's degree in early childhood ed.I just don't see that much of a gap between the 2 kids. I thought she's score a 120 or more on both parts. So how can I find out for myself what the situation is without paying for outside testing? Her teacher referred her for the screening. I can rescreen in a year. Is there anything I can do to help her in the meantime? Testing specific activities? Our gifted teacher is amazing or I wouldn't bother.
Thanks for any advise!
