I was also told that when his benchmark tests are graded that his inability to compute the math problems 100% correct should NOT be an issue. Apparently students who are gifted in math have the ability to understand the relationships between the numbers but might not be able to compute the problems perfectly. This is normal.
Do you know where you read this or if this can be "backed up" with research? I have a child in this boat and I want to show it to my school administration.
Good luck az1 and sorry to post on your thread but that comment got my attention...
