Gifted Young Children by Louise Porter
This work is a comprehensive guide to identifying and working with young children with advanced development. Louise Porter shows how to identify gifted children aged 0 to 8 years and how to challenge them without pushing too hard. She suggests strategies for ensuring their emotional and social adjustment, including ways to enhance self-esteem, increase their resilience to stress and promote friendships. She provides guidelines for counselling children about their giftedness and shows how professionals can help families in their efforts to meet their children's needs. Different strategies for educating gifted young children are assessed, and issues faced by immigrant families with gifted children are also addressed. This is a reference book for teachers and other early childhood professionals and a useful resource for parents of children who are or may be gifted.| SKU | Unavailable |
