moose, is gabriel artistic? musical? sensitive? like quick to say...awww..when a cute puppy comes on tv..or fast to give hugs.

i ask because this is common with those who are. it takes teachers willing to work with them. more visual..animated. the lecture style of teaching can't hold their interest. it doesn't spark that isde of their brain.

my daughter can learn anything put to music. the old school house rock vidoes are a godsend.

i do agree with being too smart for the grade. they get bored.

my grandson is way ahead of his class. doing the hooked on phonics before he went into kindergarden helped. he was a wonderful teacher that knows how to keep him occupied.
