Gifted in the Middle: Exploring the Social and Emotional Needs of Gifted Middle School Students

All middle school students face difficulties, but for the gifted learner, this can be an especially challenging time. In this seminar, parents will learn the social and emotional changes that their gifted child is undergoing as they transition into middle school. By connecting the individual needs to DC Comic’s Justice League (a team of their most iconic comic book superheroes like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman), parents will have a collection of characters that serve as archetypes to these social and emotional changes. Topics covered include self-image, taking risks, fitting in, slowing down, establishing their own truth, the need for mentors, and a parents role in establishing hope. In addition, parents will learn of different high school options and the process of guiding their gifted middle school student into the future.
