[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of kids are smart. I'd consider gifted, a child who is reading by 3 and doing addition, subtraction and more by 3-4 as well. Lots of kids are smart, even the underestimated ones.[/quote] Dr. Burton White and team studied well developing and talented kids for the Harvard Preschool Project. Over the decades of study, they saw that the kids who were growing especially well by 3 stayed ahead compared to majority for a long time to come. Some skills of especially well developed 3-6 year olds: - notice similarities, differences, logic gaps, make interesting observations. -able to use resources creatively and efficiently. Finds new uses for common objects. -able to empathize and see others' point of view. -active, rich imagination -able to organize peers and plan complicated plans. -able to both lead and follow peers I'm forgetting the rest. Will.post full list when home with the book " new first three years of life " [/quote]
