[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I'm not OP, but I could see this coming for us as well.  DC is strong in math and logic, and pretty strong in reading --- but DC is NOT strong in writing.  The tests they used to qualify DC for AAP involved logic, math and reading.  The tests didn't require advanced writing skills.  Now we are seeing how much writing is involved and it is causing DC to struggle in math (as well as every other subject) b/c they have to explain thinking in writing.  DC is starting to dislike his favorite subject.  Our base school has Adv. Math and there was not much writing involved... so this is not something we expected.

We are not giving up yet.  For now, we expect there will be some discomfort with growth.

Just wanted to re-assure OP that she isn't alone.

(FWIW, DC reports that there is a child in the class that has had "breakdowns" at least three times already where he gets frustrated or afraid of something and starts having a crying fit on the floor! -- so, at least you aren't dealing with that situation OP.  Good luck.)
