Thanks.
We live in non-gifted state or one that does not mandate giftedness. Both the public and private schools have been in a dilemma with what to do with my son. This second private school requested we get the testing because they wanted to know what happened at the first private school and if there were any learning disabilities or other issues going on.
It's frustrating because I had spent an hour with the tester explaining what happened at the 1st private school and how the school and I thought he was possibly pg.
When the tester gave me the scattered and inconsistent scores, I asked her how this reflects my son's ability to do multiplication without any instruction or complete the pre-k/k/1st grade curriculum in 2 1/2 months. She said she couldn't and didn't have an answer me. URGH.
The tester did say that my son might have ADHD and Asperger's. I completely disagree with the Asperger's. I'm not sure about the ADHD because there are attentional issues at times, though my son is now reading Geronimo Stilton books in an hour and has good attention when he's being challenged. So perhaps I should post something on the twice exceptional page.
Yes, I'll definitely get further testing. I'm still puzzling out what's what. It's just exhausting some days.
Yes, one test on one day - not exactly a complete picture of your child!
