Have you ever wondered...

  • how to cope with a very bright child when you've got 30 other children in the class?

  • what to do now you're in charge of the gifted programme?

  • what giftedness really is, and what it means?

    • Introducing for the first time in book form, the Holistic Descriptor of Giftedness – a definition for the 21st century, recognising the impact of giftedness on the whole person from infancy to adulthood, providing a deep and satisfying approach to working with gifted learners.

    Based on this far-reaching approach, this book:

  • sets out five key concepts to help you recognise and meet the needs of gifted learners at every level of schooling (the REACH model)

  • includes a wealth of thoroughly practical teaching strategies to implement the model, with loads of high-interest examples drawn from work by teachers just like you and from gifted learners just like those you know

  • introduces a special three-question conceptual lesson-planning tool to bring all these strategies into highly effective and exciting units of work

  • covers a wide range of supporting topics such as identification, parent perspectives, cultural differences, acceleration, grouping, giftedness with other special needs, and more.

    • This book is written for everyone who lives or works with a gifted young person – classroom teachers, gifted programme coordinators, parents, special needs teachers, counsellors and home-schooling families.
