Saturday November 14th for Parents
(An education event by ABC Ottawa for parents of bright and gifted children.)
Four Strategies Parents Might Request of the Schools for the Education of Their Gifted Child
In this session, Professor Rogers will share research-based strategies that ensure academic achievement gains and the affective support gifted learners need during their elementary and secondary educational years. The research itself to support these elements will be provided and discussed. Parents will be encouraged to share which strategies have been helpful to their children and which have not, and compare to what the research \"says\"!
What Else Can Parents Do to Nurture and Support the Gifts and Talents of Their Children?
Professor Rogers will outline extra-curricular and at-home opportunities parents might consider to supplement and complement what is happening at school to develop their children\'s gifts and talents. Parents will be encouraged to share additional experiences they have found useful and stimulating for their children.
