  1. Confused...friend731

    maybe she’s bored with school, I mean be grateful she isn’t wrapped into that makeup stuff, but try having her take some tests, she seem really intelligent so try seeing if maybe the grade she’s in now isn’t challenging her enough

  2. Try teaching her something that would be taught in a high grade instead of stuff that shes getting taught at school already.

  3. Whether you are religious or not, God has HUGE plans for your daughter. She is an artist and her learning style is hands on, which you will probably notice this as she teaches the other children that you mentioned. This is probably why she is struggling at school and could also be due to stress at school. Take a look at the teachers. Ask for a meeting with them and the principal and the counsellor and get to the bottom of it. God makes everyone completely equipped with what they need to succeed at what he brought them here for. Your daughters personality, intelligence and manner is proof of this. Wish I could say more, but I dont like to be pushy. I hope this is thought provoking for you.

  4. Everything you are saying on this post confirms what I was suspecting when I answered your other post. Get her to a pediatric psychiatrist now, and insist that the school provide her with appropriate programming. I’m sure her regular ed teacher is a good one, but regular ed teachers do NOT have the training to deal with this sort of situation. Once you have the diagnoses from the pediatric psychiatrist, demand the school hold an IEP intake for your daughter.

    They should NOT categorize her as E/BD. She should be categorized as Gifted, and if you get her a diagnosis of Anxiety and/or OCD from the pediatric psychiatrist, the school psychologist can recommend that the diagnosis be categorized as Other Health Impaired rather than E/BD. She should be receiving support from the school’s gifted ed specialist (someone actually trained in gifted education…demand credentials), the school counselor, and the special education psychologist.

    If you are in a state where gifted education is not a part of special education, still demand the IEP, but also demand gifted education modifications (compressed/accelerated curriculum, reduction of boredom and increasing of motivation through replacement of skill drill work with individual projects focusing on higher-order thinking skills, etc.), and a statement on the service page of coordination of her OHI program with the gifted education program.
