Just to give you an idea of where DD is, she recently had IQ testing done (yes, despite all of its flaws! -- I know!). She is around 140.
So...she is convinced that she hates math. I believe that it's because she has never really had any type of math challenge at school. We do a lot of puzzle-type math at home, but she doesn't associate that with "math" like she does at school.
So we're supposed to have a meeting with her teacher to determine the best option for her. I would like to have her do some more in-depth math projects, so I'm looking for ideas on what she could do. We're thinking of some sort of data analysis type of project, but I'm open to other ideas. She's also gifted in visual arts, and we would love to combine ideas if we can.
