Child I left this experimental school a year after admission, when her father was appointed to a position in another state, to which the family moved. In the new school she was placed in the fifth grade, on the ground that she might make better social adjustments there, although her achievements were clearly already better than those of average sixth-grade pupils. It is unfortunate that no follow-up of this child has been possible. Her record and the variety of her abilities were striking. She was one of the most outstanding and best-liked pupils in the group at Speyer School. In addition to her remarkable intelligence she possessed desirable supporting traits which led the teachers to predict that she might "go farther" than any other child in the selected group of fifty "rapid learners." The fairly complete account of I's background and early development has been here provided in the hope that it may be made of use by investigators at some later time. PHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS AND HEALTH Measurements, as of January 16, 1939, age 9 years 6 months, were as follows: CHILD I NORM Height 58.5 inches 52 Weight 96 pounds 61.5 Chest circumference 29 inches Head circumference 21.1 inches Eye color brown Hair color dark brown Tonsils and adenoids caused trouble in 1933 and were removed in 1934. No visual defects noted. Occasional headaches "usually from reading or remaining long periods indoors." Hearing excellent. Nutrition excellent. No symptoms of general weakness. Parents report I to be "at least very excitable," and that she shows "impulsive actions and extreme eagerness." No sleep difficulties; no muscular twitching; no special fears. Sleeps nine hours, fairly soundly. MISCELLANEOUS CHARACTERISTICS Her superior ability was first noticed by people from the University, at 15 months, because of comprehension beyond that expected at such an age." She is interested in music and wrote the school song at Speyer. She has been very much interested in nature study and science since her second or third year, and "in her relationship to the world and the cosmos." Has asked questions frequently concerning origins and creation. She has shown no special interests in mechanics, drawing, or painting, but from her second year she has had active interests in recitation and in the dramatization of nursery rhymes, etc. She has played with imaginary companions. She began making up rhymes at an early age. "She reasons logically and has a strong sense of justice." A neatly bound volume of typed pages, prepared by I as a Christmas present, 1937, for Leta S. Hollingworth, is entitled "First Poems." There are in the collection a dozen short verses or longer poems, each dated by I's age at the time of composition. The ages range from 4.5 to 8 years. A few samples follow. STARS
