[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Still missing the point. It is not about the label. It is about having the kid learn something in the eight or nine hours they are at school. Gifted kids are at risk of checking out if their needs are not met. [/quote] I think that risk is overplayed -- as others have noted truly gifted are few. And how do we know that something good might not come from checking out. Gifted kids don't need to be spoon-fed constant challenges as many make their own. I once watched my son space out during an activity, staring at the ceiling when the rest of the class was looking at the performance in front of them. Only later did I realize he was trying to figure how the ceiling was constructed. You need to lighten up. [/quote]
