When my oldest was in pre-school I knew nothing about gifted. We started in a Waldorfish preschool and that was a total failure for her. I moved her to a Montossori school.... Looking back on it, it really did not work for her. She tolerated it. She complained about going and then when she was there if I snuck a peek she seemed happy enough. The same thing happened in elementary school. In fourth grade I moved her into a school and class that was mostly gifted. She changed and I got to see what she looked like when she was genuinely happy in school and it felt really different. I don't know if that helps or not....
