running parents Welcome to our check integrated workshop on today we are going to be having our school psychologist miss both share on the gifted and hide cheating learner so thank you. We hope that you enjoy this presentation Miss Bowser go ahead and introduce yourself, you can share your videos yeah good morning I'm like a psychologist where are gifted in Hyatt Eden Werner and then presented by miso what is a gifted learner so some definitions has no Universal definition first day but I've been murdered academic giftedness can be seen through our standard High Intelligence so if you do some sort of intelligence test it can be also just without eating so I could dentist appointment is very very high schools excelling understanding that the subject matter very easily and feeling like need more of a challenge and it can also be where we have strength in areas that night might not see the stupid you know academic areas like for the Performing rights definitely not just the standard academic areas as well and so did you think you mean which I tried touching into by the state law was for California for example would be intellectual academic achievement and academic area like how I mentioned earlier and so some of the challenges that may be faced by gifted or hives even wearing hers is what I want to go over first they may have developmental differences in for the option to log. Areas and their life at different race and or may not always be in sync with their peers so for some students if they're very intellectually High no have shared interests as other. Because it may be more interested in different process than maybe they're singing a because they're so gifted in some areas right so they may have a snack with interactions with their peers are had to bring in trash or may not feel like they can relate because they're not having difficulties like this might have some kind of those different day that they may know that and do some typical challenges they may have is one of the big ones is with anxiety because they know that you performed so well so a big line is you're a failure because they Challenge and stuff so much because they know they have these abilities and somehow the car. They strive for Perfection and have a need for control and something out of their control then it her texting that means jumping to their sleep are staying up really late for something when in reality they could just go to sleep especially at this date but we're adults just in general at least seven to nine hours and definitely for teenagers and their growing bodies and less than 8 hours of sleep is is not going to is not going to help them with their academics is only going to hurt them but in their eyes we're not balance of not just getting the Simons done when they can share their quality of life is still on dipped into every air rain what I want to go over some strategy for our gifted in high school so what I love to start with is positive psychology which I will go over with the positive psychology is studying human thoughts feelings and behaviors with a focus on focuses on what are we doing wrong are you can we improve them only work on stuff that we need to do and really focus on getting that strength we can maybe help with those instead of just focusing on their weaknesses we need what sound does a cheetah make you understand that you are a very bright person kind of ways to focus on strings is with karate so for example what you can do for and what time is just make sure we're on the same page has to receive and intentional at the China from another person give me a benefit you if you are valuable that was provided intentionally and a Christian the person who provided the benefit to being grateful for the people around you understand the people in their life that they can be thankful for and have Friday or that are there to support them so if they're feeling anxious that you guys will who are those people. You know I really appreciate all the help they do and it's in mind so what they can do every night is like small to large things with their face before and the day I'm really grateful that my sibling walking home where can we eat a day. Like I'm grateful that I have a wonderful teacher that supports me in there and then everyday to get that consistency understanding of focusing on what who are the people in your life or things in your life that help you be successful and another great one would I have done before the person receiving a letter so you deliver it in person the letter and read it out loud I know due to the team dinner maybe in person on his unavailable at times but over the phone but we're Sharky's time where we read read out the letter y is and what they do to help you succeed in life in general so and it really helps really recognized they can go to for help another important thing is optimistic thinking because our mind and I teach with this within all the time or mine here very power weapon right we didn't have the power to think positively or negatively with their thoughts right so you at you still at the future Oldman during that you can face any bad situation and come out one more likely it's hard to keep trying until you Compass what you want in life so. So you're thinking with the pain that we learn from those mistakes in our mindset that we learn from those mistakes and we grow and not positive events will happen because you will put in an effort to learn from those mistakes and to do better than that optimistic that if you fall down the first time they're going to get one from not and do better the next time we do perfectly well the second time maybe not but you'll probably get better and he needs to learn and continue to grow until he reached a point where you're doing an amazing job with it right but it always better the talking yourself saying like I'm never going to learn this hard I'll never be able to keep repeating the same where you keep doing the same thing the same time and so I kind of had some that's already sorry I didn't push the 5 + 4. Events on the right side so we're doing done with autistic temporary only lasts as long as your if we keep thinking about the food we're not moving on from it right we can have some time with that but we need to know what can I write and then we want to make sure that we don't blame other sources for bad of there do you want to hear his knowledge what we did and how we can grow from the other people then we're never going to try and improve on how we can do better but forgiving which is always in my ability so it's not because of cheer it's because I had on and then I worked hard to do well and seeing that this will happen throughout life that you will always if you put in the effort to keep learning from your mistakes all right so this isn't a growth mindset so you may have heard of this before because it's very popular nowadays which is a great thing though play sweet on that already but what don't want is a statement that the belief and something to shut down very anxious and your mindset right but if we have a growth mindset we're talking not letting us go down that rabbit hole on saying okay what's 19x time what do I need to adjust this isn't working you better not which I've been talking about a helpful or harmful enterovirus blasting and investigating a mistake you can learn from them and not repeat them but three common ways we can allow remember I'm mine and very power we can talk like it's okay with her like you let me ask for help you say something like to our minds and we may give up because and the second thing is what we need to do is we need to reflect on her mistakes and Hercules want to forget about it and I did this horribly I don't want I think about how we got there we might miss how it happened in the last way we need her. open the wedding process is if we just completely avoided eez where we're like oh I'm not there so I know we will make the payment because eventually it's going to pop up in your life again most likely mean anyone that yourself you're not going to even try to understand certain area right strategies for growth mindset this is my favorite thing because she didn't have Trololo Reddit entirely of course Easier Said but one great thing to practice is a positive self and don't talk and either be positive with RH or negative I decided in everything you do for first deposit next day or working on something that is very it's easy for negative thoughts when we're having a hard time you wanted a computer anymore what year we may not be able to ever stop that instinct in it but the heart here that we can work better on is noticing that negative thought we had them and putting it away with a positive right in it one time that I need to go to I need to ask for help so I can get better at this we're going to have our next is Markel and my also has been mentioned before and throughout schooling because it is very popular as well so making sure your goals are specific and narrow for more effective planning to not just I want to do well in school Yvonne measurable so we had our lovely schoology where you can measure how much percent of your assignments have you turned in yes it is attainable cuz you are assigned the science assignment based on being able to do it right so I'm not save a life I only want to get an A+ 100% every single is it possible yes but are we really setting yourself up for success with thoughtful probably not maybe like I want at least Gilligan are be on every assignment I think that's more realistic if you're a great and you really want to put yourself right now I want to do something. so when do I want to show engine my time I get all my time as I need to make up by week before we do kind of like I want to do in school is not not really sending your minds on a great path to get it done so it's going to settings go and help to get results and more satisfied with your life always make everything right beginning 100% of everything we're letting ourselves down not want right and he'll make it feel it more real of having a goal to write down on call and have it as a reminder made by our year or something. A breakdown that long-term goal because we five only time that's so five weeks right of having a goal does this thing within five weeks we're going to get this done with break it down more if the mangoes to the goal is getting that though. diamonds for science lesson maybe it's okay I have four assignments so I'm going to get my assignments done that I need to for the week going to make up that one extra assignment that I makeup So eventually get caught up by that 10-week Mark write you one makeup assignment or that we'd I caught up with that one and is the most important thing I didn't catch on as we need to celebrate we also being proud of yourself go go play outside for a little better I'm going to go to the mall with me and what is always difficult with now with our social media world all the technology that we have is our time management so even if it is hard you try the regimen doing those assignments like actually getting it done to you the paper planner I know the Next Generation or maybe but what's important to have in that sort of planner is the Hub ahead of reclast and kind of had each class markdown writing specific assignment we plan to work on the assignment Monday or Tuesday so very giving I thought of when you're going to do it what you need to do and when it's making sure you get it training before it's 2 an organization so what I think is really important is finding some place were you know if you go to this spot if your work with them right or you go here where you work is really helpful can you kiss me or not time to work and not be on my cell phone from Nadia my iPad at my materials and school work put in the work area and then get to work increase it typically daily schedule so for example reschedule we don't you don't need to print out we wake up the earlier now cuz this was from last year when we started class at 9 but this is just an example we're ending so for last week and then from 3 to 4 the time that you do your homework so no matter what from 3 to 4 you doing your homework and then after that from 4 to 9 you got free time in literally 5 hours you want and you can our work and get stuff done in your free time and then like at 9 p.m. to start getting ready for bed flexing is mindfulness so my phone is has developed a present aware of where we are and what we are doing your paying full attention to something it means going down to really notice what you were doing my bonus assembly noticing what is happening right what happened yesterday talking about the future what timing tomorrow is just being in the here-and-now and sometimes our minds wander to the Future by our body always say present always stays present that's why with mindfulness when we do mindfulness activities were you even gave him some then never leave the present and that's why I was always important to engage the body and somewhere different exercises there's so many my phone so way to practice mindfulness so some websites I really love so this one with the picture that's called has faced with you right here at the bottom with guided meditation meditation they may not be further people you got to find what your child's life is basically where you listen to someone leave online for meditation is like the guy that I focus on your breath focus on feeling your body focus on what made and then it just goes on and on and there's different types of dinosaurs what really sent it about mindfulness it sounds simple but deep breathing is the most Corning area and most of your mindfulness is because deep breathing help center in the purpose of breathing through your nose I can feel your body move right cuz you're only focusing on the front right other areas is looking the music there is what's called a heartbeat exercise where you put your hand on your heart and you taking deep breath focusing on the heart beating to hear your heartbeat. You can get Michael Cullen Fluttershy it's really funny is Google making a sensory bottle or you shake it up and see this letter squirrel and focus on what it looks like what it taste like eating all those things that you can do a nature walk and see what beautiful around you and the five senses that we have is you know we got our site without hearing our ears with our tongue with our hands were feeling and then with our knows we're smelling right don't do during the five senses always looking around you what are five things you can see or things you can hear three things you can write and then going down down down with each time or where you are right in the purpose of mindfulness Journal is when you're feeling and being negative we want to engage the first, allow our frontal lobe in The Logical decisions how to handle the situation not our emotions cuz when we're feeling really emotional right when we write in the moment we're feeling upset or sad it's hard to engage our friend pillow because our emotion darling so we need to exercise our body and get us back to where we can use our frontal lobe thinking with show me some general test so for the positive positively reinforce a chance at a time so it's really important noticing a little thing. how does where they may not already be great. are students are very very aware that this is what we do well as adults do you want to reply we're not your kids tomorrow taking stuff scare with his life for you but you know why you do that models like hey I can learn from it. I can get better at this I don't have to die away from it to being a model for your child or student so important and take care of yourself as a parent this is so important you are going to make mistakes you're also human but I do time for activities you enjoy that you get a break from stress and lied to me and you deserve it you're raising a child and we know it isn't always easy and butterflies and rainbows right hit that time again thank you so much and if there's any you can always feel free to email me at Kayla.
