Thanks for your story, NanRos! I have followed a bunch of your posts here as it seems we do have very similar issues. I am laughing about your story of blowing off the reading the teacher's instructions. Toward the end of this year, our preschool teacher (4's class) made up a poster with the days of the week. It was a co-op preschool and it happened to be my day to work in the class, so A,B and I were there early and the teacher was getting them to help her put up the new poster. A backed up and read the whole thing out loud. The teacher was so shocked, especially since, as I said, A still zones out a lot and didn't ever talk much in class. I was kind of amused and then went back to obsessing over how to get her to speak up that day in circle time.
I would think you would have better luck this year at the gifted school. Will be hoping to read that it works out great for your DS.
