[quote=Anonymous]I have a kid with an IQ of somewhere between 145-155. In a classroom where doodling is not allowed and the only allowable reading materials are the grade level stuff the teacher provides. My kid literally cannot continue to sit still and pay attention to material that he had already mastered early in the school year. He has access to new material only on science days. The rest if the time, yeah, he is BORED. His teacher won't allow him to quietly entertain himself, on the theory that if he gets to draw, his seat mates will want to as well. We've tried to move him to a second grade classroom for reading and math (he is a 6 yr old first grader) and were told it would be too disruptive. How do you expect him to stay engaged in those circumstances?[/quote]
