Maybe we are better off painting a picture of who our dd is and see if a lightbulb goes off in there head. because our district has all kids bused to one k-3 school... assuming the teacher serves both am and pm... there are probably 8 teachers so maybe not as big of a pool as i was first thinking (forgot about the am/pm thing and was just thinking 250 kids in that grade divided by about 24 (yes 24-25 in k, 28-30 in 1-3).
i'm less concerned with serving the gt factor this year then the emotional side of ee. today i realize one thing though ... i think there is a difference between some basic maturity behaviors and being an emotional child. we don't do much wacky immature behavior but we do sometimes struggle to manage our emotional response to things. we can sit still. i just worry if someone offends her by her own definition if she respond appropriately. but in a seperate thread i agree with one response about kids being different with others than with their families.
