Details

Do you have a bright child who struggles in school, whether during  distance learning or in the physical classroom? Are they doing advanced  math at home for fun but won’t fill out a simple worksheet for school ?  Has your child memorized elaborate sequences of historical events but  can’t remember to turn in homework? Does your child talk about complex  topics but struggle to read at grade level? You may have a  twice-exceptional (2e) child! 

Callie Turk and Yael Valek, founders of Resilience and Engagement for  Every Learner (REEL) as well as parents of 2e kids, present an  interactive overview of 2e - what it is, why it matters, and effective  approaches for supporting 2e learners both in the classroom and during  distance learning. 2e students experience both high ability and learning  challenges, which presents unique challenges, including asynchronous  development that may lead to anxiety and behavior issues. Explore  strategies to help your child thrive at school. Special guest speakers  Heather Johanson and Laura Kimpton from Lamborn Advocacy will join to  discuss how 2e students can quality for SST/504/IEPs and specific  accommodations available during distance learning.
