A Field Guide to Gifted Students is a practical manual to the unique characteristics of gifted and advanced learners. Presented as a concise 32-page booklet available in sets of 10, this resource and its companion online facilitator's guide can be used in teacher workshops and other group professional learning settings to assist educators in understanding and meeting the academic and social-emotional needs of this student population. School can feel like the wrong fit for many gifted learners, but through learning how to notice and support gifted students' diverse traits and needs, educators can build ideal classroom climates for student success. The field guide features practical tips based on current research and best practices, engaging illustrations, checklists and space to write notes, a glossary of terms, and true-to-life descriptions and classroom anecdotes about a variety of different types of gifted learners. Readers will understand how to identify giftedness and related traits, including twice-exceptionality, introversion and extroversion, perfectionism, sensitivity, and intuitiveness. The online facilitator's guide includes everything workshop leaders need to conduct a brief course for classroom teachers, coordinators, counselors, or even parents.
