Jennifer,
What does the IEP say?
If you post it here we can at least say if it sounds reasonable. Sad truth is that you will probably have to say yes and get started with something and then use "trial and error" to see if it's working - these kids are all highly individual, and hard to predict what will happen.
But you knew that kids don't come with instruction booklets!
I wish I had the name of someone local to refer you to, have you checked
http://www.nadiawebb.com/index.html to see if she does the kind of advocacy you are looking for, or knows of someone who does? Dr. Webb is one of the few people in the US doing assesments of kids who are both highly gifted and LD. People travel great distances to see her.
See this link for an overview of the book she co-authored.

Love and More Love,
Trinity
