I've been reading through "Preparing for and holding an effective meeting" (
http://www.davidsongifted.org/db/Articles_id_10111.aspx) and "Advocating for Exceptionally Gifted Young People: A Guidebook" (
http://www.davidsongifted.org/youngscholars/Article/Davidson_Young_Scholars___Guidebooks_375.aspx). It's really helpful to have this community and the amazing resources!
Next year we will go through a more rigorous testing process as we apply to the GATE public 3rd grade and private schools. In the meantime, we've applied for the Young Scholars Program and hope DS7's application meets the criteria. The application is helping us prepare for our school meeting and I'm considering bringing the videos we used for one of the portfolio pieces since I doubt the teachers have seen him playing "Odysseus" at school.
Plus, we just received "The Last Olympian" (Percy Jackson & The Olympians last book) so DS7 is happily entertained.
