GS10 has just been identified as gifted in science based on the Standford Achievement tests, got the letter in the mail today. So, that makes math, reading/LA, & science. Nothing like getting one piece identified at a time. Ha, I just realized I could have used his Explore results from last year and got him identified across the board! Oh well, there was nothing to gain from it. I'm just waiting on Ooohhh, oooohhhh, I just checked our state website and see they have the rubric posted to identify a child as gifted in Visual & Performance Arts! GS10 loves to perform. He was quite good in several dramas at church and in some plays he did at a drama camp. Now I've got to ask the gifted coordinator if there's any advantage to having him identified as gifted in drama. Did I say he's quite good? That's not just grandma saying that either!
