Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Learning Environments home schooling with parents working?

Hi all-
I've posted elsewhere about DD8. We're in the middle of doing some extensive testing...so far I've been told that she's "very gifted" (numbers to come in June). She struggles, struggles with reading, and on her reading specific tests her comprehension is up 90-99th percentile while some mechanics of reading is down in the 50th. Yesterday the psyD who is doing the testing said that with her "very high" IQ the 50th percentile could count as a learning disability around reading. I'll know a lot more in mid-June, but of course my brain is whirring now.

She's in B&M school, and I see she is a combination of bored and frustrated - she can't read fast enough to show any of the stuff she is capable of. I've talked to them - without test results - and not gotten very far.

I could imagine she might blossom if homeschooled. But hubby and I both work. I can't even begin to imagine the logistics. I just wondered if there is any BTDT?

Thanks!
Susan
