“Is My Child Gifted?” Parenting Class
…And if so, now what? Have you ever thought that your child might have abilities that are different than their age peers? Come and explore the world of gifted education. Define types of giftedness, analyze national and state definitions, clarify some gifted behaviors, and gain resources that can help with parenting and school decisions. This class best serves families of preschoolers through grade 3. The instructors are Pam McDonald and Molly Hammel (Greenleaf GTYS Specialist). Thursdays 6:30-7:30pm, April 5-26, 2018. $59 fee. Interested? You can sign up by going to the District 196 Community Education website: http://public.
Friday March 9 10-11:30am, Tuesday March 20 6:30-8pm, and Friday March 23 1-2:30pm Caribou in Prior Lake Lunds Coffee Chat. Come join SPAN Board members to ask questions to those who have “been there,” to talk about your child, or to socialize with other parents of gifted kids. Parents who have received an invitation for their child to attend SAGE are welcome to come to talk with SPAN Board members whose children have attended SAGE.
Our next meeting will be Tuesday January 16 in the WestWood Media Center. A panel of parents will discuss their kids’ experiences and answer questions.
We have set our meeting schedule for the school year and plan to include a number of more informal “coffee” meetings. Please see our schedule for more details. All are welcome at our meetings.
