[quote=Anonymous]I have a couple of very gifted grandchildren, and some that are above average. What has worked for the high IQ kids is to broaden their education and extend it to areas beyond the regular curriculum, but to leave them in the regular highly gifted/ magnet programs. Instrumental Music is a wonderful as each child can proceed at his own pace as long as the teacher is good. Foreign language lessons are fun, again, but you have to find the right teacher. I also recommend a lot of experiential learning, such as filed trips to historical sites, and then get books from the library to they study things in more depths. Lastly improve has been very fun for them since they are so imaginative. And lots of sports. Emphasize the social side of school with lots friends over.let them have free time too to explore their own interests, particularly out of doors.[/quote]
