Thank you for the info. VERY interesting article and well worth the time to read!
I guess I am just trying to figure a way to let this woman know what level he is actually at. That he is gifted for sure and not just borderline. I don't know how to make her understand that in a gentle way. But unless she is on the same page the discussion will not really help me IYKWIM. I hate bringing up accomplishments since I have pretty much learned that is a NO NO unless I am talking to a few near relatives. But since he has not been tested I don't have much to state.
He tested into KUMON on 1-2nd grade math and 3-4th grade reading.
Also his Preschool (elementary school educated) teacher said he is reading on a 4th grade level. Would it make sense to bring this up to the lady in charge of the gifted program. Or do you have any other iseas how to get this through to her? Everybody knows that when the description of the child's abilities come from the parents they are always taken with a grain of salt...
