SUMMARY: Slow Down, Gifted Kid! (Connect & Collaborate Series)
DESCRIPTION: Ever been accused of going too fast?  Ever been tagged as being too passionate, over the top, not taking a breath?  Feeling it all?  Feeling too much?  Trying to do everything at once?  Can't you just let it go?  A little bit hard on yourself?  Feeling like an imposter? Welcome to the world of gifted intensities and overexcitabilities. Hosted by 1984 Boettcher Alum Mark Hess, join us for discussions and networking  surrounding the topic of giftedness.  We will dabble in what giftedness means, the traits gifted learners often share, perfectionist tendencies, and surfing the wave of wonderfulness.  Let's chat about our gifted kids and about ourselves—yes, you, gifted Boettcher Scholar. Mark Hess is an author, educator, and speaker with over three decades in K-12 public education - more than two decades working specifically with gifted learners. Mark has nine publications including Social-Emotional Curriculum for Gifted Learners for grades 3-5 and Hands-on Literacy for grades 4-6. As a teacher-trainer, he specializes in helping educators understand and nurture nonverbal brilliance as well as understanding and meeting the social and emotional needs of gifted learners. He is a gifted specialist in a large, urban school district, a member of the SENG Board of Directors, Editor of the SENG Library, and President-elect of the Colorado Association for Gifted and Talented.On the day of the discussion, you can join the conversation at this Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89009279877. Floyd Pierce will also follow up with you to make sure you're all set.Before the event, please review the following articles:https://www.sengifted.org/post/slow-down-gifted-kidhttps://www.stephanietolan.com/is_it_a_cheetah.htm
