[quote=Anonymous] It means that your child thinks slowly on most topics that are not of burning interest to him or her. This is just how their brain is wired, and it cannot be changed. However it does not mean low intelligence - often slow-thinkers produced more mature and advanced concepts. For example, in 4th grade, my son writes beautiful, thoughtful essays, but the teacher knows he needs three times as much time to work on it as the other kids. He received an N (the lowest grade) for the first one of the year because he couldn't hand it in on the due date. Then the teacher understood she had to accommodate his needs: when the due date approaches, she lets him off the hooks for other work so that he can type his essay and finish on time. [/quote]
