[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The GBRS isn't about test scores or scores on the NNAT or Cogat. It's supposed to be about in-class behaviors. https://www.fcps.edu/sites/default/files/media/forms/AAPGiftedBehaviorRatingScale_0.pdf[/quote] It's hard to argue that a kid who is way above grade level in all subjects isn't displaying an "Exceptional Ability to Learn" or an "Exceptional Application of Knowledge." Likewise, if a kid is on or below grade level and doesn't have extenuating circumstances (like ESOL), it would be hard to argue that the kid is showing an "Exceptional Ability to Learn" or "Exceptional Application of Knowledge." Either way, if a kid has a gifted IQ and is above grade level, I find it hard to believe that the kid isn't displaying some of that in school. It seems much more likely that the teacher doesn't understand giftedness (or just doesn't like the kid) than it is that the kid is just sitting there doing nothing. [/quote]
