We have a similar issue with 10 yo dd and 8 yo dd. Dd#1 has learning differences and dd#2 is HG and has a killer working memory. Dd#1 often gets frustrated with it but I just try to keep emphasizing that they both have their own set of strengths and weaknesses. Unfortunately for dd#1 her strengths are not strengths that are highlighted in an everyday elementary classroom with traditional instruction and minds.
