I need portfolio suggestions for the DYS application. My son is 6. He's homeschooling at a 4th grade level, but his WJ scores ranged up to 7th (qualifying him in one area). He maxed two subtests of the WISC but his GAI was 3 points too low because he has Asperger's and didn't understand some of the comprehension-type questions (situational) and because he has physical delays which caused him to be too slow/clumsy on other areas. We were told his actual IQ is likely 160, and that we might be able to test again in 2-3 years after more therapy. (He's been in various types of therapy since birth.) His handwriting is at the level of a 3-4 year old. Most of his assignments are either oral or computer-based (mouse, not typing). I really have very little to actually show what he's doing. I could video him reading a chapter book, but that's not very impressive. All I have are a barely-legible English test (90% A, 5th grade level) and a computer print-out showing which skills he has mastered in his online math program. I just don't know what else to do, really! Please help!
