I took ds5 in for his assessment this morning for the same TAG program my dd is in. I can't even begin to tell you how nice it would be to have ds in the same school as dd. DS is (What I call) a defensive perfectionist. He doesn't do anything that he hasn't mastered. I emailed the tester to let her know this.
After the testing she let me know that she feels that ds doesn't read as well as I think he does. *sigh*
It would be super to have my defensive perfectionist underachiever in with students who know as much or a little more than he does so he would strive a little instead of coast a lot like he does now.
