[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are wanting to apply for gifted services at my DS's elementary school. I don;t think his classroom teacher will recommend him, seems not to like him too much. If he has a WISC test showing IQ in the low 150's, is that enough? We had him tested last month. The school where he is has some worrying trends about GT services and I'm also wondering if it's worth it.[/quote] That describes just about every child in my kid's N Arlington class. They pull out or group based on ability which I believe is a better way. By 4th-5th grade there are high, medium and low groups for subjects. The kids move classroom for them. A highly gifted math student may not be highly gifted in English, etc.[/quote]
