Default Is there any good educational programs for kids with 120+ IQ?

Does anyone over here knew of a place or city that has some good educational system for younger children's . If raised correctly I think that most of the individuals would feature a average IQ score of 120+.

Can you believe into this? Sure that for some individuals (smart persons) on this site , a mere 120 IQ is not that great either way.

Arrow Bookstore.

Not every city would like a bookstore or library ... Sure that it will be great for Books about Puzzle games and Data Processing , after all counting numbers and characters is a must on data processing!

Talking Percentile, 99,4%.

Is there "good" 140+ IQ !?
What is a "99,4%"? Is this supposed to mean something ???
For odd reasons , there is some strange numbers that continue popping out of somewhere ...

By the way, one of my "old" math results was really a 9,7 ...

Just read. Do maths problems. Open yourself up to new experiences. That increases IQ at any age.

You're asking for some schools that help raise people to be smart? Interesting notion. Why don't you take it into your hands? At the least, the kid is not going to be in school from birth onwards, but it will be int he parents' care.

Now, about having a high IQ. IQ is believed by some researchers to be about 70% inherited. That gives you lots of room to grow. On the other hand, IQ may very well not be the best measure of intelligence. For example, Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences makes more sense to me. It isn't even very well correlated with success in life.

Even if you don't subscribe to the multiple theory, you don't want to forget IQ at the expense of everything else, including sports or creavity. IMO, genius is the ability to stick with problems and come up with novel solutions. Generally, to come up with new ideas or combining other ideas in new ways is a very important life skill.

I might ask WHY you want a child to be so smart?

The best way to start is as a good parent.

Find ways to inspire your child to be curious, assertive, and optimistic.

The nice thing is that this is usually the default mode for children.

The difficult thing is teaching them that, no matter what others say, it's the right way to be.

So, now your child is curious and confident. Give them books, intellectual movies, let them read newspapers, teach them about all the different religions, actively take an interest in their acquisition of mentors and positive influences.

Don't suppress anything. That inspires rebellious feelings. Instead, just try to encourage the positive things. They'll feel better about success, and they won't worry about failure.

From there, just give them access to the Internet, and again let them access whatever they want as long as you're there when it's iffy.

A childhood sexual development (i.e. playing doctor, pretending to be in a movie love scene, etc.) is incredibly good for improving your child's sexual confidence as an adolescent.

As far as schools, the answer is that you can boycott schools to improve in the long-term - if you're willing to homeschool your kids. If you do everything with the right balance and care, your child could get a GED by a rather young age...

Not only is this good, but it will inspire your child to be a similar kind of parent, meaning your parental legacy will be incredibly powerful.

Good luck. Hopefully I can live up to my own advice when the time comes!

don't try to raise your IQ, instead try to use your full potential....with an iq of 100 you can become more than what you could ever dream of.

The test that America as a whole was re-probated???
It seems to be one kind of test that was used decades ago to measure learning disabilities ... Like the American fault when reading written documents or texts.

Sure that there is some games and other strange definitions of it , like the tests that a person miss three or more hits. Sure that some persons would reach a perfect score or only miss one or two ...

Red face Programs that are not very good.

Something about "IQ":
CBC Television : Test the Nation

And the polemic 'IQ of the Nations' ...
IQ and the Wealth of Nations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

With is most definitively a proof that their are not using those programs to reach 120+ !!!

Yukio! You also gave us a definition of what an IQ is in the thread, "Fun and Humor Time" (post 244) but I thing that it should have been posted here...

The normal "Intelligence Quotient" was to measure the level or retard that a person would have , including the Idiotic level!!!

To use the special educational programs ...

Oh, thanks for the gentlest.
By the way, French and Spanish are optionally in Brazil. French is only required for diplomacy and diplomata ...
It is obligatory to learn at least a "second" language in Brazil , could be English , Spanish or even French .

Question Milwaukee Project .

Does anyone knew if this is true?
If so , there should be no problem to the implementation of those "120+" IQ projects on U.S.A. or Brazil ...

Sure, this was the type of project that I was talking about . If even the politics didn't knew about it, what are their doing right now? Their don't even knew the artistic projects to use both right and left hands for drawing ...

Default Drawing with the Left and Right hands.

For those that would be interesting in drawing, there is one book that has something about learning .
The Natural Way to Draw: A Working Plan for Art Study

Book by by Kimon Nicolaides.
There is lots of exercises and the course of the book is only one year long. It is not a expensive book either ...

If you use some of the exercises from this book combined with other materials like a articulated marionette and extra books , probably someone could fast improve their "artistic" potential ... It is a shame that not everybody was interested in improving the development of young children!

Default I.Q. Societies ...

OK, I joined the International High IQ Society. Ordered two books:
The Mammoth Book of IQ Puzzles
The Mammoth Book of Sudoku

Both books were made by Nathan Haselbauer.

Maybe it could work.

Writing about Internet forums, one of the first things that attracted my attention to Steve Pavlina Blog was the result of a Google search for the creator of the Puzzle games published by Dexterity. At least some games can be cute to play!
