ds is 4.5 with sensory issues. he did so poorly in the gifted screening they said he was average to below average, and definitely not gifted. we had him tested privately, he was gifted. the district tested him again, he was gifted. but...they are standing by his original creativity score which was a NINETEEN percent? really?
he is doing reading, writing, and math at the 99th percentile. his full scale score is high enough for him to qualify. and i can't believe this kid is NOT creative. he manipulates words in his head to spell backwards FOR FUN. he makes connections in real life. he likes to draw, write, and build to create. how is he SO below average in creativity??? what's on that test anyways?
he took the torrance. are there are other options for preschoolers. the day he took that the environment was insane and he did not do his best on any assessment they gave him. who screens preschoolers for giftedness in an active middle school library anyway? so dumb. :{
