Although the psychologist provided some recommendations on how to engage him more in the classroom, I am looking for more resources. I am not sure that this book will help me with that.
Our local library has 'Interlibrary Loan' so I often request books before I buy them, and in a few weeks I they arrive.
Did you find '5 Levels of Giftedness' by Ruf helpful?
Are you thinking of homeschooling? Looking for a new school? Trying to get the teachers to modify their approach? Thinking about a further skip?
I also like
http://www.susanwinebrenner.com/ and her books - not that I've much been able to influence teachers to modify their approach beyond:
'He doesn't get sarcasm, don't use it on him.'
'Don't stop the reading test because he reached a level higher than a 4th grader ever has reached - keep going until you find his level, so we'll know.'
'If you are doing group work, and don't want him to have a tantrum in class, pair him with as bright a student as possible.'
Peace,
Grinity
