@TCEA @TheNatCollege @m_chiles I get the most out of my students by asking extending questions, which require them to "dig deeper" into their thinking or reasoning. Great graphic!

According to a 2020 study by Gafour & Gafour- "The ability to apply creative thinking in both a digital & non-digital environment has become a characteristic of successful people." #thecreativekidslab #thecklab #gifted #giftededucation #giftedandtalented #creativity

By playing an instrument, children not only develop musical abilities but also enhance their overall cognitive functioning, which can have positive impacts on their academic success and lifelong learning. #gifted #giftedchildren #music #musical #creativity #thecreativekidslab

[Nicole Goldsmith @theckidslab]

Asynchronous development means that gifted children may have advanced cognitive abilities but still struggle with age-appropriate tasks, leading to challenges in social interactions and emotional regulation. #gifted #EmotionalIntelligence #emotionalregulation #thecreativekidslab

Parents and teachers can help foster creativity by providing opprotunities for children to explore and experiment with different materials and activities.
