Crazy Daisy,
How was the IEP yesterday? I hope she's going to start getting what she needs.
I know what you mean about your DD not believing that she knows as much as the other kids. My DD definitely thought the same thing at first. In the first week of her subject acceleration last year the teacher, in addition to noting her shyness, noticed that she was looking at the other kids' work to see what they'd done. She had to be encouraged to just do her own work and not worry about what the other kids were doing. Within a few weeks her confidence was up and she was at the top of the class.
