[quote=Anonymous]05/22/2012 20:36 - Good discussion. My thinking is that the program should be offered to kids who have the capability. They might all behave different socially, after all everyone needs to have their own individuality and kids express and exhibit their capabilities in different ways. A kid struggling in Math could actually be really good in solving puzzles. Instead of stereotyping the kid as not being smart since the child is not good in Math, the understanding should be their interests are not in Math or they the way they are instructed needs to be changed. I have known a couple of kids whose IQ scores could be off the charts but are socially inept and very introverted. If such a child does not want to open up their mouth in the classroom how can the teacher understand the child's true capabilities? [/quote]
