We stand at a crossroads, perhaps a sea change, where the strict content standards of No Child Left Behind are contrasted with the skills of creativity, innovation, and problem solving essential for learning and life in the 21st century. This session provides strategies for nurturing creativity in young gifted children both at home and at school, including best practices for recognizing and supporting children's natural curiosity and creative traits, fostering specific divergent thinking and questioning skills, developing a supportive classroom climate, and both celebrating and integrating creativity at home and within the family. Substantial handout provided.
