[quote=Anonymous]The subjectivity/biases of the teacher can have such a big impact. My DC’s teacher in second grade gave him low GBRS. I went in to talk about it, and no joke, one of the reasons she gave a low score was because my child did not consistently show their work. My kid got the answers right and could do the problems quickly in their head, but because they did not write out all the new math busy work, the teacher scored them lower. I almost fell off my chair. Another reason for low GBRS was DC did not consistently do the extra work in class, because they would quickly get the regular work done to work on blocks and puzzles - DC is off the charts in spatial reasoning. DC would do the extra work on the school worksheets with us when they got home, but the teacher never saw that. So teacher thought DC was some kind of slacker…um no…they just did not fit her box of what a gifted child looks like. I could go on. DC got in on appeal.[/quote]
