You, Your Child And The School.

By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist Academically gifted children are the center of a great deal of concern. Are parents and schools properly challenging them? How can they be helped to fully develop their ability as successful citizens? Some of these children present difficult problems. Since they learn very quickly and are extremely curious, th«y often become bored or restless. At home, they may be spoiled and hard to understand. In school, teachers may find that they are careless and behavior problems. Schools have developed a variety of programs for these children. They range from advancing the child’s grade level/(skipping) to arranging specif classes either full or part time. Other schools may attempt to work with them in the regular classroom and to challenge them with extra assignments. Regardless of the school's approach, parents should be prepared to supply a- home environment which is interesting and encouraging to the child. _pareful attention should be given to the

child’s social development. Pride Is Natural Start with proper identification. It is natural for parents to take pride in a child’s ability and achievements. Don’t push him beyond hi® capabilities for your own satisfaction. Recognize his needs if he is in this highly gifted group. There is no exact measurement to identify a gifted child. Good indications are possible. I. Q. <a measure of intelligence) is important. The school may be able to give, you the results of an I. Q. test'. Some schools may not permit this. An I. Q. score of about 130 or above probably means a high ability. Next, you hnight look at achievement. Is the child doing yery well in school or is he , having difficulty? This refers to ( the ease with which he learns, not his behavior. Does the child . have a vivid imagination? As the j truly gifted child develops, he , should be able to analyze his j work in great depth. He probably will be able to perform school . tasks with a great deal of understanding. All of these indications must be considered in rela- ’ tion to the child’s age. If his abil- . ity is in doubt, you can have him , tested and obtain advice from a

psychologist ,or other specialist. Seek Expert Judgment Expert Judgment should be sought, If there appears to be a contradiction between ability and performance. Although the school program is not under your control, there is much that you ca* do at home. Reading is of major importance. See tjiat the child has every opportunity to obtain books. The public library should be easily available. Encourage the child to pursue his interests. Show your interest by helping him. Your aim snould be to assist him as a consultant. Permit him to use his own ability to develop his ideas. The most important assets which ryour child can achieve are self responsibility and direction. The ' child must learn to live with others. Permit him to be a child and to have fun. He should have respect for others if they are to be his friends. His gift should not only be directed toward his own satisfaction but also toward the responsibility he has to society.
