[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"My kindergartener is already reading on a third grade level. He is so bored in school. It must be because he is gifted." No. He is the same age as a second grader but he is doing his second grade work in a kindergarten class. So mot gifted. Just 'big for his age' or old for his age. You pick. [/quote] I find this very insulting. The cut-off in our area is September 1st, and DD was born September 5th. [b]Therefore, we were forced to redshirt [/b]and she has always been the oldest in her class. She's now 10 and in 4th grade. She's always been one of the top students in her class, usually gets perfect scores on tests, and reads well above her grade level. But by your logic, it's due to her age, not because of her own personal intellect. Thanks.[/quote] That was not redshirting. That was sending her on time.[/quote]
