My kid is in a 3/4 split and is bored out of her skull. She says that it's not different from 3rd grade. The school is wondering if she's gifted.

I know she's a bright kid but I don't think she's gifted, I think the teacher isn't teaching the 4th grade kids fully 4th grade material.
Yeah, as someone who was in a 3/4 split for 4th grade back in the 90s (and in Canada), that's basically what it was like. We'd have Math and Science with the main 4th grade class, and maybe go off to learn French twice a week, but everything else was basically repeating what we did in 3rd grade. All with a teacher who really didn't give half of a fuck about the older kids being bored out of their minds.
