[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the Np quoted above not the former teacher you’ve been talking to. I’m a parent of a gifted kid who is like your ds. Nothing you’ve written is something my child hasn’t achieved. It’s just not “outlier” territory. I lurk on DYS and most of that is the same: parents pushing gifted kids 2-3 years ahead. I can’t get excited about it (and my child is the same in math, further ahead in reading) when it’s the norm for average kids in other countries. [/quote] DYS kids [i]are[/i] outlier kids. Not prodigies but outliers.[/quote] No kidding. 3 standard deviations above the norm is an outlier. Also, if your kid’s appropriate instructional level is high enough that he can’t be grouped with anyone else in the grade, that kid is by definition an outlier. [/quote]
