[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn't seem like any of the PPs really know what is going on. Clarity would be nice. I have a highly gifted second grader who has very mixed experiences with teachers. His K teacher and 2 teacher really liked him, and "got" his giftedness. His 1st grade teacher thought he unmotivated -- I doubt she'd recommend him for the program. Unfortunately, there can be kind of a negative feedback loop for some gifted kids with teachers not experienced with giftedness -- the kid is bored so opts out of the work; the teacher is irritated; the student is less motivated to do any classwork; the teacher is more irritated; etc. etc. I was ready to give up on public school for my child, and then this year he has a teacher with a master's in gifted ed and it's like the clouds have parted and the sun shines through.
