Gifted learners often master concepts quickly, but when they are not challenged appropriately, they can miss critical opportunities to develop resilience, perseverance, and problem-solving skills. This webinar will explore the concept of productive struggle, the essential process of grappling with challenging tasks that promote deeper learning and personal growth. Together, we'll discuss how parents can support their gifted children through moments of struggle, foster a growth mindset, and embrace challenges as valuable learning experiences. Practical strategies, real examples, and a focus on emotional well-being will empower parents to nurture their child's full potential.
