Hello! I have watched the boards for a while and am at a point I really need some advice. I have a 5 DS who is currently enrolled at a gifted school. He scored in the 99.7% on the WPSSI with a total score of FSIQ 140. At his current school they do Kumon and he is stuck and having problems with writing numbers. His teacher says he just won't do the work but is capable. He is in Pre-Kindergarten but because it is a gifted school the work is accelerated. At home is obsessed with math and always asking me difficult math questions. I am concerned that is getting behind at school and his love of school seems to be dwindling. I am concerned he is extremely bored or the IQ test was a fluke. Does that happen? He is not as self motivated as he needs to be. My DH and I have considered putting him an immersion school(public) because of diversity of children and we feel like if he is successful in school he might do better. Any thoughts on privated gifted school where the child is not the smartest one around or public immersion school?
