Forging Partnerships with Teachers and Why They Often Don’t Work
Presented by Nancy M. Robinson, Ph.D.
Children deserve to have the adults who care for them—parents and teachers—working as partners. This is especially true for gifted students, for whom the usual guidelines may need tweaking if they are to be enabled to grow at their own pace. All too often, that crucial partnership doesn’t happen. This talk will explore some of the understandable reasons that parents and teachers may feel, at times, that they are caring for two very different kids, and discuss ways the adults can take the initiative to repair that situation.
