Hi polarbear and zen scanner,
Thanks for these great thoughts.
I should have been cleared about my objective. I totally agree that any IQ discussion is probably fruitless, maybe worse. But for DS, I want to focus on the things that help explain his frustration and suggest ways to help.
For IQ - it's not the high number I want them to focus on. It's the 94 point split between his VCI and PSI. I think if I don't give them the actual scores, they'll be irritated. But I don't want the scores themselves to be the focus of the conversation. More like - imagine the frustration of reasoning/comprehending like a __-year old, but only being able to process at the speed of a __-year old. Then pile dyslexia/dysgraphia on top of that, so you can't even output what you manage to process. Throw in some auditory processing and sensory issues. Hey - this data gives us lots of ideas for ways we could make life easier in the classroom (for him and the teacher)!!
So anyway - that's why I was thinking about the translation idea.
