This year the theme of New Zealand’s Gifted Awareness Week is ‘Thriving as Gifted’
So what I do to help gifted learners to thrive?
Here is my business card. A few years ago I would have said that I helped gifted learners to thrive by providing Gifted Resources information via my website and a monthly newsletter. I am no longer producing the monthly newsletter and I am in the process of updating the website.
But I think it would still be fair to say that I can help gifted learners to thrive by using storytelling to increase understanding of gifted and 2E twice exceptional people.
The stories are told on my blogs and in webinars

And Sprite’s Site

It is a funny thing about being a storyteller – all your characters clamor to have their stories told!
All the folk at Sprite’s Site wanted to describe their role in helping the gifted to thrive!
And they all wanted wave and wish New Zealand a happy and successful Gifted Awareness Week as they have in previous years.
“OK” I said. “You may all lay your cards on the table!”
