[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know if there is a more annoying term than saying a child is gifted when they are a couple years ahead of grade level. Fine to say they are advanced. To me “gifted” should be a truly unique individual, like the child artist Akiane who painted Jesus when she was 5 or whatever. [/quote] Why not "gift" these children a flattering label? It's the least the school can do after making them be in the same classes as kids who are a couple grade levels behind.[/quote]
