CP,
I didn�t mean for my post to come across as bragging about my son�s early reading- in fact his reading ability seemed/s all over the place depending on how it was/is assessed. What I meant to highlight was the fact that reading assessments for young children seem to focus on sounding out easy and boring words and phrases. As they get older, our students are evaluated more on reading comprehension which may be more important for academic success. These skills do not always coexist.

Early math ability is not as commonly cited among the various levels of intelligence, but may be more indicative of profound intelligence which seems in line with your son�s SBV scores!

Too funny, but true about waiting for Dottie!
