[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I've been able to help my 2 magnet kids, but there are others who have been studying above grade level math privately for years. They are not more gifted than kids who don't take extra classes or have parent academic support.[/quote] May be some of them were taking those "above grade level math" classes privately because they were geniuses who were not getting challenged by the grade level material - who knows! It is ridiculous to assert that someone is not gifted because he or she is taking private classes. Are there kids who are above grade level in a subject but are not really what many would consider gifted (i.e.) wired differently? Yes, there are. But are there kids who study privately because they are gifted? Also YES. We know of kids in both categories, and outside enrichment was even more essential for the kids in the second category.[/quote]
