I have a gifted daughter who is now 6 years old and in the first grade. We knew something was different about her by the age of 2 because of the profound statements that she would say as well as her ability to read by the age of 3. If you are a parent of a gifted child, you will understand our panic with what to do with her! We were very worried about how we should proceed...challenging her enough but not putting pressure on her...giving her the information she wanted to devour but not expecting too much...helping her be well-rounded and socially adept but not holding her back. Should we do private school or public school? Were we and her preschool teachers crazy or was she really seriously gifted?

I wanted to provide this resource for parents and their children. This will be an easy place for you to check and see how your child will score on the Exit Level TAKS Test for 11th and 12th grade students.

Here the amazing messages that these students share via You Tube. Blogging opened up the world to these students helping to make our planet a smaller world to live in.
Nice job Susan Waters!

Have you ever found it difficult to engage your child in the writing process?
Do you find that you daughter or son is uninterested in expressing themselves and that finding their "voice" in the writing process seems so distant?
This website is a great tool to unleash the imagination.....
Students are raving about it!
