Unexpected Traits of Gifted Students

2/11/2020

 
Raising a gifted child can be complicated. There are so many layers to the asynchronous development of the child who is truly gifted.

Ian Byrd is a contemporary gifted expert who we follow on Twitter and who presented to us at a TAG (Tennessee Association for the Gifted) Conference in the fall of 2018. He has written a wonderful blog that explains these five overexcitabilities of gifted students:
  1. Intellectual
  2. Psychomotor
  3. Imaginative
  4. Sensual
  5. Emotional

At the end of the entry, Ian provides implications for the classroom. It's a great read and one that we wanted to share with parents and teachers of our CLUE students.

Here is the link to Ian Byrd's article: https://www.byrdseed.com/five-unexpected-traits-of-gifted-students/
