Hi everyone! This is my 8th year teaching elementary school. I'm currently working on getting my gifted certification. I have a question that has been on my mind. The social development of gifted students is such a crucial part of educating the whole child. Many of the gifted children at my school struggle with social interactions with peers. My question is two-fold:
1) How do you address social development with your gifted students? What are some activities/methods you use to help them improve their social skills?
2) How do you have time? Our gifted students only receive 45 minutes of daily gifted resource education. They work on such in-depth projects that time is precious.
Thank you so much for your guidance and support. I'm looking forward to becoming an active member of this board. smile Allyson
