[QUOTE="Calgon_Take_Me_Away, post: 178416, member: 5645"] No, they didn't say it was inevitable ... they said it was likely because of the unevenness. While doing IQ testing at 5 yrs old, they said his perceptional reasoning and block formation were in the 10 yr old range (on the IQ scale 131, rated very superior) while other parts of the testing were just below average at 85. He has high nonverbal skills and below average verbal skills. During question answer portion, if he didn't know the answer, he would just sit there not saying anything. For the most part he is on track educationally. His spelling and math are strong ~ I got to the point that I told him if he can spell all the words on his spelling list on day one that I wouldn't force him to write the words 10 times as the teacher assigned (yes, I told the teacher this as well) and generally he did awesome. A few times he did write the words, but not often. Reading is his sore subject ~ he is behind but not drastically. At the end of 3rd grade, he was in the beginning of 3rd grade level so at least he was in the same grade level with Title 1 help. He uses a "Pencil Grip" to help with- holding his pencil correctly ~ before using it, he was writing the way I do and very heavy/hard pencil strokes that made his hand tired quickly. Thanks for the congrats ~ I'm pretty thrilled about the offender group especially! [/QUOTE]
