Description
Gifted students have unique needs and issues that need to be addressed. In this age of accountability it is difficult for teachers to provide a separate social-emotional needs curriculum. How can teachers focus on the social-emotional needs of gifted students and still teach content standards? Presenters will discuss specific social-emotional developmental needs of gifted students, current core curriculum standards, popular models and specific strategies for integrating social and emotional aspects into current core curriculum, and provide resources for planning. Participants will be able to discuss and plan integration both in core curriculum areas and across disciplines.
