Verbal+Reasoning

Verbal students have strength with language. They process (think) in words. These learners are strong auditory learners and have the potential to master language (receptive and/or expressive) quickly. Students with advanced potential in the verbal reasoning area need oral language opportunities that include analytical, critical, and creative thinking skills. It is important to provide accelerated vocabulary development and to build verbal fluency through drama, poetry, storytelling and debate. These students are likely to develop strengths in reading and writing, but not necessarily at a gifted level.
