[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 47691"] I specifically asked if she did an IQ test. That is when she showed me the graph she drew, pointed out the x's she had in the 130 range, then noted the one x at 70% telling me that his visual scores were below average which brought his total scores down. However she said even though his scores were brought down by the "below average" score, it is only numbers and he is definately a gifted child. Also went on to say how he processes information differently than the "normal" student. how his thoughts race through his mind faster than he can physically handle therefore causing frustration and causing his inability to write. Not physically being able to keep up with is thoughts. Was put into IEP that any free style writing such as stories, paragraphs, sentences can be done on the computer in class, any fill in the blank and math worksheets cannot be for obvious reasons. First they tried to tell me that they have limited number of classroom computers and didn't know if they could spare one. At that point a regular ed. teacher piped up and said, any child needing a computer for an accomadation will be given one. That a teacher must give it up to the student in need. Spec. ed. teacher, SW all just say, "oh, okay". Back to the test. I do not know what any of the tests specifically said, just the graph she drew and where the x's were placed. She did state academically he scored 92% and 99% better than other 7th graders. Not sure what that means either, or what test that came from. [/QUOTE]
