Smart Kid Terminology : 25 Terms to Help Gifted Learners See Themselves and Find Success

Smart Kid Terminology is your go-to resource for helping gifted and advanced learners identify and work through their feelings, thoughts, and experiences in relevant, accessible terms.

The illustrations and descriptive definitions in this book demystify educational terminology that can often be dense and difficult to understand. Each section features a description, example of the term in action, and a solution with recommendations for practice. Light-hearted and encouraging, this book covers terms like perfectionist, procrastinator, bored in school, isolation by choice, and more!

For young learners, this book is a guide for identifying and expressing their feelings. For parents, it provides a tool to help them develop coping strategies together, and for teachers and counselors, it’s an essential starting point for understanding the needs and emotions of their most advanced students.
