[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don't think you should be dissuaded if your child is not writing beautifully and making great inferences. The child will improve their writing at the HGC. What gets you in is an intelligence-type test. Bubble sheet, not essays![/quote] But, if the child is not at a certain level to start out with, that kid will struggle a lot. Of course, most kids improve their writing while at HGC, or at the home school, for that matter. But, if a child is in HGC, then it will be expected that the child already writes and comprehends at a certain level to begin with. [/quote] Kids are gifted in different ways. There are many who get into HGC who were not the best writers in 2nd and 3rd Grade. Their ideas are more uniformly interesting than the mechanics are strong. [/quote]
