8. IV. Giftedness Characteristics
A. School Performance
When she is in preparatory school, the subject’s quizzes were always
perfect. Sometimes she got 1 mistake. She is always at the cream of the crop of her
section. Interest in studies was seen in the subject at this stage. She always does her
assignment and prepares her things for tomorrow’s school. Same thing happened
when she was in kinder 1. In kinder 2, a quite laziness was observed. She wakes up
late and sometimes misses the class.
Grade one did a lot of adjustment to the subject said by her parents. Unlike
when he was in preparatory to kinder, her school is near the house and her class starts
at 8:00 am and ends at 11:00 am. When she was in grade one, she has to travel six
kilometers to reach school and her class starts at 7:00am until 4:00pm and between
this class hours, there is a two hours lunch break at 11:00am to 1:00pm. She comes
late at school because of the distance of school to home. Sometimes she was caught
sleeping in the middle of the class. This stage of school changed the subject and
trying to build her physical body to older child. Fortunately, the subject passed the
grade one and is ready for the second grade.
B. Subject’s Self Concept and Interest

9. “I love Dora the Explorer”. She always watches this movie which she
wanted to be like the main character on the movie. She pays lots of attention in this
movie resulted to less attention on her studies. “I want to be a doctor someday, I want
to have a clinic that is color pink, has many plants outside and many birds.” She
answered when I ask her what he wants to be when she grows up. “I want to teach
people what is good for their health and what is not like Dora teaching others good
attitudes.” She added.
I asked her about memorizing almost all flags of the world when she was 5
and she answered that she was first fun of shapes and colors then developed into
memorizing the shapes inside each flags. Her ability of fast memorization is due to
her interest of colorful shapes inside each flag.
She was able to read at the age of four and this made reading story books
as her other past time hobbit. Reading is the easy part for her but she has difficulties
in pronouncing words. She also fun of playing computer and internet games because
she has a laptop that used to be her toy.
III. General Appraisal/Recommendation/Predictions
A. Strength and Weaknesses
The subject’s intelligence can be hereditary because her parent also excels
in academic when in school. Her father is a valedictorian when he was in high school
and her mother is part of honorable mentions when high school. Her grandfather is

10. also an engineer which is good at mathematics. Exposing the subject to early test of
knowledge increases her intellectual quality.
When it comes of the attitudes, her grand mother is the reason why she is
respectful and polite. Her grand mother is quite strict in terms of respectfulness
especially in front of elders. She is always with her grand mother because her parents
are absent at day because of work.
Her greatest weakness is being bullied by the other especially when the
bully is older than her. She can face this weakness if she is with her family like
parents, grandparents, and uncles or aunts. She doesn’t want also to be left alone
unless she is with her younger brother. At home, when all of the family has an
appointment, they leave the subject and her younger brother alone at the house while
they are watching movies. At first, they are afraid that they will be left alone until
they are used to it. Being at dark places is also her weaknesses. This is because she
heard much folklore from someone older than her.
Her greatest strength is when she is with her family. She can move and
play freely even if she is not supervised by her parent or uncle as long as she felt that
she is not alone or she is enjoying something.
B. Recommendations
The subject is considered gifted because of her ability of fast memorizing
and also a good physical body. Not all children have this gift or capacity or skill. I
recommend that she should continue whatever practices that contribute to her talent

11. and skills. I also want the subject to be engaged in sports because this can make her
body stronger and mind wiser. Being more exposed to other people also improves her
communication skills as well as her ability to cope up with others. That is all I
recommend, I hope that this child can be a better person soon when she grows up and
face the real world.
