Thanks St. Pauli Girl - that makes me feel better. It has been a kind of rough week. After the positive WISC scores and first meeting, I was feeling great. Then, I realized Andrew was going to have not one but two more tests. The first one (TOMAGS) got him really frustrated, probably because he has not been exposed to much math outside of his normal first grade curriculum. I was hoping (based on the meeting) that the WISC would substitute for the CogAT, but no such luck. CogAT is Monday. To to it off, My son was very clear with me that he was very tired of testing and kind of all done. Sigh. I think I have both myself and him all calmed down, but I am questioning a bit if I pushed too soon. I started all this because of his anger/frustration every day after school, so I think I made the right choice. I remember reading something to the effect that not choosing is in of itself a choice. Hopefully he can just persevere through the tests next week and the results dovetail with the WISC.
