    Parents' Guide to IQ Testing and Gifted Education

    $11.69

    Document Overview:
    Parents of brainy kids can understand what's behind IQ testing and selection for special school programs with this guide to gifted education. Written by an IQ specialist, this guide details the history of IQ tests and how they measure intelligence, and familiarizes parents with signs of giftedness they can look for in their own children. Acknowledging that some bright and gifted kids can reach their full potential in a regular classroom, a detailed analysis of how gifted programs work helps parents decide which gifted programs, if any, are right for their children. A section on twice-exceptional, or “2E" kids, shows parents how to recognize signs of learning disabilities in their otherwise bright or achieving kids and how to access school support for those particular problems.

Toward More Family-Centered Family Sciences suggests that the family sciences, in their effort to be scientific, have perpetuated this distance between researcher and subject, to the detriment of both. The authors argue that family and kinship ties are transcendent ties, boundary-crossing in numerous ways.

    On the heels of the success of How to Date in a Post-Dating World comes this polar opposite: a collection of dating nightmares that'll certainly let readers know what absolutely not to do on a date.Since the year 2000, dating columnist Judy McGuire has advised and entertained singles with her irreverent Ask DateGirl column. For every possible type of dating nightmare scenario out there, Judy's most probably heard about it, and has offered advice on what to do to resolve it if the problem date is still lingering. In this book, she collects some of the worst dates she has heard about, ranging from the bland to the incredibly frightening.How to Not to Date is organized into four sections, each section a compendium of gradually worse-off dating situations, compiled from her readers over the years. "Worried Grimace" features not ideal dates, but nothing to freak out over. "One Eyebrow Raised" contains stories of dates with red flags. "Both Eyebrows Furrowed in Horror" collects true nightmare stories. While the final section "Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here" represents the worst of the worst.For each nightmare situation, Judy advises what to do if one encounters such a scenario, and how to escape the especially frightful and potentially dangerous ones. In addition, she also forecasts what the future could be like if the date is given a second (or third or fourth) chance.Packaged like How to Date, this will be a fun, gifty book for anyone who enjoys sharing war stories from the dating front.
