According to the Davidson Database, 13 in 10,000 are PG. I have been curious. How do they know this? It's not like everyone gets an IQ test.
Also what should 13 in 10,000 mean to someone who is helping guide an elementary education?
It seems like the child has to show what they can handle/do before school would make any adjustments. When I talked to someone at school about DS being set at the same pace as the other gifted kids this doesn't seem to matter. He has to show them he can do the work but, I question if it's the pace causing less than his ability performance. It's hard for me to know. I'm thinking about Science, where his aplication has not been up to par for a kid who loves Science.
