3.1.8 Supportive Strategies for Guiding Twice/Multi-Exceptional Learners, Their Parents, and Teachers in Diverse Schooling Situations
We applied various strategies from our afterschool program into a homeschool setting for twice-exceptional children. The goal was to create an environment to nurture children’s abilities without allowing their learning difficulties to stunt their development. We will analyze different strategies and give advice on how to develop afterschool programs for gifted and homeschooled children that create opportunities to nurture talent. These proven, successful strategies allow students to develop their academic social and emotional sides, become well-rounded individuals with the ability to think and make the best choices, and develop into intrinsically self-motivated lifelong learners. We will soon be starting these same workshops online.
