[quote=Anonymous]Middle school teacher here who also does the MG program - Being MG isn't as "special" as people think it is. In my experience a lot of MG kids are lazy. I regularly have gen ed kids out perform them. I need to make a comment about reading levels. You kid might be able to read 7th grade text but most likely does not have comprehension. Remember comprehension requires a fair amoint of previous knowledge which I doubt your kid has. I often have seventh graders score post high school on the Gates assessment. They would have a diffiucult time with actual comprehension on that level. What it does tell me that they are advanced readers. My advice to you is to teach your kid to have a work ethic. That matters more. [/quote]
