You are wise AND psychic! DD/DS's teacher just told me that DD needs to be tested for GATE for next year. DS took the WISC privately and I think that's the way to go with DD. And...let the hothousing begin! She will be taking some online classes this summer and a class in kitchen chemistry cooking and math games for 5/6 graders nearby. I will be doing workbooks on 5/6 math and English with her and work on keyboarding. And she is now registered for the EXPLORE in October.
She will still have gymnastics practice 4 nights a week, 3 hrs a night so it will be a busy summer! I just had my knee replaced so I will be able to stay home with the kids for the summer.
As a cute aside, Friday DS was called to the principal's office re an incident on the bus where boys were smooshing rotten bannanas on the floors/seats. DS was sitting in the middle of it but wasn't involved, and was called in to give his side of the story. (He forgot the buses have video tapes going at all times) He was so upset, has never been in trouble in school and came back to class shaken and teary. DD was so concerned, she rallied several other kids from their bus, they marched into the principal's office and said her brother was NOT GUILTY (DH is an attorney

Oh, and thanks for the referral of Trnasforming the Difficult Child Workbook. It is ordered and on its way!
Thanks and more thanks,
