[quote=Anonymous]I have seen this from three sides: as a child who was skipped a grade, as a teacher, and as a parent of a GT child. Skipping a grade in ES hurt me and I was bored in math during my middle school thru high school years because I didn't truly understand the concepts, not because I was as advanced as I was in language arts and other subjects. As a teacher, I find enrichment for the truly advanced kids so they are never bored. My own daughter was bored in 1st grade but she tests off the charts.[/quote]
